Sydney spoke this morning about her impending bat mitzvah to a friend's adult Sunday school class at Mount Pleasant United Methodist Church. I'm prejudiced, but I thought she rocked, and the crowd was appreciative. She chanted part of her Torah portion in Hebrew, which was a big hit, and fielded a lot of questions (I took a few, too, on issues such as the Jewish view of the afterlife). It can be so easy to speak across faiths, although people sometimes make it hard.
