Thank you to all of the teen and parents who made the Purim carnival a big success on Sunday!
Did you know that there are two celebrations associated with this festive holiday, Purim and Shushan Purim? Purim was celebrated March 9 - March 10. Shushan Purim is for walled cities such as Jerusalem…and WESTWOOD (we have colonial stone walls) and is celebrated March 10 - March 11. We invite teens and adults to gather for some fun as Shushan Purim comes to a close, Wednesday evening 7:00-8:00 p.m. Come in costume, enjoy good food and beverages, and friendly team competition as we study the Megillah through a textual scavenger hunt. Think of it as trivia meets American Ninja Warrior (don’t worry, these are Jewish stunts so it takes acrobatics of the mind!).
Finally, we continue to monitor the Coronavirus and efforts to contain its spread. We will be making sure students wash hands before they eat. We plan on serving dinner as usual this Wednesday and will update you if there is a change to this plan. If your student is feeling under the weather, better for them to stay home and get healthy.
L'Shalom,
Rabbi Micah and Rabbi Karen
