Beshalach

Jessica F., Jan 26, 2013  Temple Beth Elohim, Wellesley, MA

Jessica was the epitome of confidence and poise as she led most of the service and chanted from the torah.  Her speech about being a leader, which she compared to Nachshon crossing the Red Sea, was very moving.  She talked about moving from NJ to Boston a few years back, and how she was the face of courage to her younger siblings.  Rebecca spoke about the Rashi school's 5 core values and how Jessica embodied them, her lovely grandmother presented her a tallit that they made together, and friend Marcie sang a prayer as the Rabbi blessed her.  The party was at the Needham Sheraton, and fun was had by all.
