Rabbi Modek did a great job preparing Jake for the ceremony. Jake had a thorough overview of Judaism’s history, and traditions. Jake wanted to learn Hebrew. With the Rabbi’s skillful instruction and much practice he actually was able to accomplish it. The ceremony was super meaningful for both Jake and our family. We also appreciated it that with Rabbi Modek we could “break the mold”, because our family had stepped away from conventional religion, and chose to creatively reconnect when Jake was already 17.
