Please join us next Sunday!  We will be baking Hamentaschen, singing wild and wacky Purim songs, and attending the Family Megillah program with the rest of the congregation.   Wear your BEST costumes (adults as well as students) and enjoy the happiest day of the year!   Students who attend the Megillah Reading will receive service "credit" for Religious School.


Our 6th and 7th graders spent time with Dr, Joel Hoffman, the visiting Scholar-in-residence, on Sunday morning.  They had a great discussion with him!
