ESTHER: The Eras Tour

Minyan M’at Megillah Reading: 8pm in Hirsch Hall
Join with the Minyan M’at community to celebrate Purim and hear a full reading of megillat Esther.
In addition to megillah reading & sumptuous refreshments, the event will feature a musical “send-up” of the megillah featuring a dozen beloved Broadway tunes, with a heavy dose of Sondheim, all written and performed by “our very own” Ron Meyers with support from a talented cast of minyanites. Get ready to “knock back” a Shushan Shpritzer and have a laugh!

MISHLOACH MANOT
Every Purim, we assemble a bag of goodies for every member household. Contributing toward Mishloach Manot bags is a great way to celebrate Purim and brighten a friend’s day, while also raising vital funds for the shul. Here’s how it works: send Mishloach Manot to specific friends for $9/bag, or to the entire membership for $450.
The DEADLINE is Monday, March 18. To participate, log into your Shul account and go to AnscheChesed.org/MishloachManot.
You can pick up your bags on Erev Purim (Saturday night, March 23) and during the day on Purim (Sunday, March 24).
