"Jen and Alon are masters in this field! Beloved community is built around their fun-loving, playful, content-rich shabbat and High Holiday services. Their music and puppets engage kids and adults alike, and they lead with warmth, caring, and an expert's ability to guide and respond to the real-time vibe and need of the community." - Hazzan Shulamit Fairman of Kehilla Synoguge
"Jen Miriam is a treasure. She has the remarkable ability to deliver important content along with core rituals in her musical Tot Shabbat. Her puppet shows are totally accessible for children of all ages, while still engaging for adults, and her sense of humor is down to earth and hilarious. I have seen her work in both small and large settings and she never fails to captivate the audience". - Jhos Singer (Maggid and Congregational leader of Chochmat Ha Lev in Berkeley)
"As a professional organizer, teacher, and school director I have worked with hundreds of talented people over the past 20 plus years. Rarely have I met and had the honor of working with someone as multi-talented, funny, creative and wise as Jen. She lights up the hearts and souls of people, especially children. She has a unique ability to see the big picture, responsibly attend to process, track details and intuitively sense what the situation or the people could use in order to elevate the experience. She embodies the concept of rhythm in every sense of the word. Jen is a rare gem - the more we engage her creativity, the more light we see". - Marla Kolman-Antebi
