The celebration of a boy's bar mitzvah involves calling the boy up for his first alyiah in a synagogue service. An alyiah in the synagogue service is when an adult member of the congregation is called up for a portion of the Torah reading. Therefore, one of the objects, obviously, is the Torah. Because it is improper to touch the Torah with your fingers, the Torah reader typically uses a little pointer called a yad. That adds another object to the list. Finally, the person called up for a Torah reading typically wears a tallit -- a prayer shawl with fringes on its four corners. In the case of a bar mitzvah, it is common for this to be the first time that boy has worn a tallit. That makes a third object.

Because it is the location where commands are located to allow you to use the application.

Then finish by saying how proud of him that he managed to fool his parents into thinking he cared about anything more than the party. That should get a laugh.

If you can only pull off serious, then give one or two stories that show your friend choosing to do what was right over what was easy and how you support his decisions.

Something tasteful and formal. A normal suit and a kippah (which should be freely available at the synagogue). However, a non-Jew is requested not to wear religious paraphenalia of other religions (rosaries etc.) or to wear other Jewish paraphenalia (tefillin or talitot) when visiting the synagogue.
