Opportunities for everyone to be involved!!

Participate in the Mitzvot of Purim:

1) Listen To The Megillah (Mikra Megillah)

2) Give to the Needy (Matanot La’evyonim) – Please bring pots and pans and kitchen utensils. Use them to bang during the Megillah to drown out Haman’s name and then donate them at the end of the evening to the Community Warehouse.

3) Give Food Portions to Friends (Mishloach Manot) – please bring a plate of snacks – hamantaschen, fruit, cheese/crackers, etc., to be shared as Mishloach Manot before services start. We are hoping to minimize the need for dishwashing that evening so want to discourage food that needs forks and plates.
