Hayley Goodman Bat Mitzvah

  • Congregation Sinai 1532 Willowbrae Avenue San Jose, CA, 95125 United States (map)

Hi, my name is Hayley Goodman. I enjoy running track races, especially the 400 meter sprint, and generally spending time with friends and family. I am so excited to share this day with everyone as I become Bat Mitzvah. My Parshah is Ki Tavo. I am honored to be chanting a few aliyot, including the maftir aliyah, the haftarah, and the Torah service. I would like to thank Doug Brook, my Bat Mitzvah tutor, and Rabbi Berkenwald for helping me write my d’var Torah. I would also like to thank everyone else who has made this day possible, such as Morah Michelle for guiding my Hebrew school journey. Finally, I would like to give a huge thank you to all of my friends and family who have come from near and far to spend this weekend with me.

Grant and Alana Goodman invite you to join their family as they celebrate the Bat Mitzvah of their daughter, Hayley, at Congregation Sinai. Kiddush luncheon, hosted by Grant and Alana, will follow the service. Please join Hayley and her family for this wonderful simcha. All are encouraged to attend.
