What other Life Cycle events do you perform?

Sandra

Weddings

I bring a professional attitude infused with joy and enthusiasm to both your wedding planning and your wedding day. I am an ordained Kohenet (Hebrew Priestess).  I am a mother and grandmother and community leader.

I will facilitate a wedding ceremony that will meet all your expectations whether you are religious or secular, I believe in the inclusion of all. Wherever you choose to celebrate – in a traditional setting or under a waterfall, I will bring just the right amount of reverence to your wedding ceremony.

I am licensed to officiate wedding in the province of Ontario, Canada.

Memorials and Funerals

It is so important to take time to remember those we loved in a way that is both respectful and healing to those who are left behind.

As your funeral / memorial celebrant and an experienced spiritual leader, I will offer you respect, sensitivity and professionalism.  I will work with you to create a beautiful experience using all my knowledge and resources.

I will meet with you to offer guidance and consulting while planning a personalized and meaningful funeral or memorial service. I have a wide library of resources for readings, music and other special ceremonies to help us design a service that honours the life of your loved one.

Coming of Age Ceremony – B’nai Mitzvah

According to Jewish tradition a child becomes a bar or bat mitzvah automatically at the age of 13.  This means that with or without any kind of party, they become responsible for their own actions.

In my opinion, this is an important milestone for our children. It is an occasion to be honoured and celebrated.  I also encourage a special education leading up to the event and marking the day with a celebration that reflects your family and your values.

Families who are not affiliated with synagogues or Jewish community centres and do not feel called to be are looking for an alternative.  There are many who have felt disenfranchised by the mainstream Jewish community for a variety of reasons.

I am offering an alternative experience for your adolescent.  As a private tutor, I offer a customized training experience for your child.  It is my hope to create a coming of age experience that is tailor made for your family and your values.  I offer Hebrew language lessons, Jewish History, Jewish culture, Jewish holidays and more.

I have been preparing B’nai Mitzvah students since 1995.  I was a teacher at Temple Israel ( a Reform Community) in London, Ontario and more recently at the Winchevsky Centre ( a secular community).

I promise an eclectic and exciting education for your child.
