Temple B’nai Shalom had a fabulous Purim celebration on March 10th in the Activity Center led by Cantor Gary Sherman. We took turns reading from the Book of Esther (the Megillah), sang songs, ate hamantaschen, and yelled and groggered at Haman.
We had over 40 participants with a number wearing costumes to help celebrate Purim.
The evening was capped off with an oneg featuring a wide assortment of home-made hamantaschen. More than enough for everyone.
This Purim celebration was another step forward in meeting Temple B’nai Shalom’s goal of making membership in the Synagogue an opportunity for Jews to get together and enjoy each other’s company.
