Join Temple Israel, Portsmouth, for a community Megillah Reading. Come in costume, masks or silly get-ups. Hear Megillat Esther chanted in Hebrew and read in English by your courageous community members.

Share the Joy: Two special mitzvot for Purim are giving gifts of delicious treats to one another (shalach manot) and gifts to the needy (matanot laevyonim). Please consider bringing
• A Shalach Manot bag to share.
• Some non-perishable, non-expired foods for neighbors in need.
Suggestions to include in your shalach manot bag: home-baked or bought Hamantashen, citrus fruit, individually wrapped candies such as Hershey’s Kisses, Sunkist Fruit Gels, dried fruit. If you bake treats at home, please be mindful of those with food allergies and include a list of ingredients!
