Mason “Maci” Olivia Zelkind, daughter of Deborah and Garrett Zelkind, will become a bat mitzvah on Saturday, May 24th, 2025. This date corresponds with the 26th day of Iyar, 5785. She is the youngest sister to Nathan (Cami), Joshua and Gavin. Mason is the granddaughter of Joseph and Judy (of blessed memory) Kleiner of Tulsa, OK, Glen and Bobbie Zelkind of Aurora, CO and Bennie Zelkind of Louisville, KY.

Mason is a seventh-grade honor student at Jenks Middle School. She plays clarinet in the school band and has a deep passion for art, taking private lessons to refine her skills. Mason loves animals and has a unique talent for identifying dog breeds. But above all, her favorite way to spend her free time is with her best friends-her brothers.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Rabbi Dan Kaiman and Morah Sara Levitt for providing a warm, nurturing and always engaging education. A special thank you to Greg Raskin for his unwavering patience, infectious humor, and invaluable tutoring skills.

The community is invited to join the Zelkind family for services at 9:30 a.m. in person at Congregation B’nai Emunah or in the synagogue Zoom room. The meeting ID is, as always, 918-583-7121.
