"My wife and I form both an interfaith and interracial union. Given our desire to have a traditional Jewish ceremony, we were worried about whether we would find a Rabbi who could weave our histories and traditions together into a meaningful service. We were very lucky, then, to find Rabbi Mehring, who worked with us to create the wedding for which we had always hoped. Rabbi Mehring was willing to meet with us every step of the way and offered her keen spiritual insight to our planning process. In sum, we could not have hoped for a better Rabbi to officiate our wedding."                                                   Michael and Avirrin
