Mia Brynn Kricsfeld, daughter of Michael and Megan Kricsfeld of Overland Park, Kansas, will become a bat mitzvah on Saturday, Jan. 11, at Congregation Beth Shalom.
Mia is the granddaughter of Cheryl and Richard Diamond of Omaha, Nebraska; Dr. Barry and Barbara Kricsfeld of Omaha; Karen Bram Miller of Overland Park; and the late Doug Murphy; and great-granddaughter of Irene Murphy of Lincoln, Nebraska. She has a younger sister, Lauren Finley (9).
A student at Lakewood Middle School, Mia enjoys dancing, theatre, reading and spending time with her friends and family. She also loves following Sporting KC and the Chiefs.
For her mitzvah project, Mia is assembling “comfort bags” to distribute to people in need throughout the Kansas City Metro area. These bags contain essentials like socks, bottled water, hand warmers, high-energy food and other items to provide nourishment and comfort to those on the streets.
