Purim is coming, and Beth El is throwing it back to Shushan in the 80s with a most excellent celebration! Enjoy dinner, hamentaschen, carnival games, Megillah reading, Hesed & Tikkun Olam opportunities, and the greatest hits of the decade played live by 80’s cover band, BETAMAXX! Hold on to your scrunchies and get ready to rock your neon socks off as we party Shushan-style, like it’s 1989. 

 

Bring the whole fam, wear your best Purim costume (extra points for 80’s flair), and let’s make this a night to remember. It’s gonna be totally tubular!

On Purim we learn that Jewish joy is present in the pleasure we give and receive. Simple, caring gestures of attentiveness and compassion toward others. Offers of assistance. Efforts to help. Taking time to listen and cry with one another. Doing what’s right. Being sensitive and acting ethically are sources of deep Jewish joy and gratification. This Purim, mindful of the plight of hostages still held captive and neighbors seeking to rebuild after destructive fires, we pause on Purim to find life’s joy even when it’s hard. 

 

This Purim our community is participating in two initiatives Gift Card Drive for LA Fire Relief and Mishloach Manot for Sha’ar Hanegev – Sharing Love & Support. Please join us in this meaningful Mitzvot.
