Upcoming Events
Purim – Service & Megillah Reading with our sister community, Sulam Ya’akov
Saturday March 23, 4:00 pm
As sunset falls over Israel, the restfulness of Shabbat transitions into the joy of Purim.
Our sister community, Sulam Ya’akov, has invited us to celebrate with them and join with their Megillah reading.
While you can join from home on zoom, if you are able to gather at Oaks Lane, Rabbi Jordan and Rabbi Lev will do their best to provide simultaneous translation, a parallel Havdallah ceremony (separating Shabbat and the new day), tea and hamantaschen. For those joining on zoom, please know the primary language online will be Hebrew. Zoom details to follow.
The party continues the next day, of course, with Esther Poppins, costume parades, and more..
Members and Non Members welcome!
