Purim Night #1 🎭🎪

Enjoy these photos from our first night celebration at — a grand Purim carnival for the kids!

We had a bounce house, face painting, a caricature artist, candy floss, popcorn, slushies, ice cream, and hot dogs. Add in the stilts walker and juggler, and it was nonstop fun for everyone!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and came to hear the Megillah — celebrating the miraculous story of the Jewish people’s faith and courage.

BTW — did you see our recap reel from the teen event later that night? Check the previous post for those highlights!

In our second Bati class we learned about the first ever Jewish Woman. Our Matriarch Sarah, her life, her challenges and her courage. We decorated our very own candlesticks and taper candles. We crafted our scrapbooks meticulously with art, style and personality.

Each girl took home a magnet with the Shabbat times and packed Shabbat candles to pass along to a friend, in an effort to light up the world.

Was so special seeing the girls Friday night in Shul for a special Bati service!

We can’t wait to see everyone next Sunday!

In that fateful Sunday, the first day of Chanukah, as we heard the dreadful news coming out of Sydney, we came out in numbers to show our solidarity, support and Jewish pride!
