- Continuation of My Jewish Year book discussion, Chapter 9: Hanukkah Reconsidered
Menorah Scenes: “Stories of Light”
When: During our Pre-Hanukkah Party after services on Saturday, December 13
What: Since we are having a Pre Hanukkah party, we won’t be able to light candles together. But we CAN take this time to enjoy and appreciate our Hanukkah Menorahs as we wait for our latkes to be ready!
Please bring your menorah, and any objects or pictures connected to your menorah that have special meaning for you.
We will offer everyone a chance to tell a short story about their menorah. For example: Why is it special to you? Where did it come from? Who gave it to you, and when? What cherished memories are connected to this menorah, or what memories do you hope to make with it?
Where: In the Social Hall. We will have a table set up with space for everyone’s menorah display.
Why: In My Jewish Year, Abigail Pogrebin talks about Hanukkah as a time to make connections. Let’s connect with each other over our stories–of family, of friends, of good times and difficult times–that are inspired by the light of our Hanukkah menorahs.
Every story counts!
