Our Religious School students had fun celebrating Purim with crafts, games, singing, and good deeds. Rabbi Englander told the story of Purim as we noshed on our freshly baked hamantaschen. Thank you to Anne DePaul and Sisterhood for their help with baking. Thank you to our parent and teen volunteers for helping lead activities.

In the spirit of giving, please remember to bring a box of pasta to The Temple every time you visit through the end of March to benefit LJD Jewish Family & Community Services (JFCS).

While the kids had their fun, the Purim party is just getting started for the adults in our community. We invite you to keep the momentum going this Saturday night, March 7, at 6:00 PM for The Temple Jacksonville's Rock & Roll Purim Extravaganza (21+). Join us for an unforgettable night of dueling pianos, spirits, and our legendary annual spiel.
