I can already picture it: The room full. The table packed with a Hearty Taco Bar Dinner. Drinks are being poured, someone across the room making a l'chaim and everyone joining in.

It’s an Animated Megillah Reading Live, with Mishloach Manot, camaraderie and community.

Purim. The one night of the year when joy isn't just a piece of the holiday - It IS the holiday.

When we celebrate G-d's hand and guiding presence, even when we can't see it. You'll feel it in the room. It's different from any other night.

Come dressed in a costume and enter our exciting Purim raffle! Come hungry. Come ready to celebrate. Come.

What a powerful morning! Thank you Rabbi Levitansky for sharing your valuable time with us! Your ability to find so much positivity, inner strength and commitment to Yiddishkeit, during such difficult times, has left us with lots to think about!
Below I share a heartwarming video put together in honor of young Shterna Sara Levitansky's Bat Mitzva. How does she remain strong, living in Sumy, Ukraine under constant threat of drones and bombs?

Shout out to Gad Jonn Sherman! You really outdid yourself with that scrumptious spread! It was all polished in no time at all😋!
