Congregation Beth Shalom of the Blue Hills and its Jerome Weistrop Religious School will sponsor a Community Chanukah Celebration and Open House on Sunday, Dec. 15, from 10:15 a.m. to 12:15 at the synagogue, 18 Shoolman Way (off Lodge St.) in Milton.

Stations with various Chanukah activities for children will include: make your own edible menorah, make your own real menorah, play the dreydl game and more, plus latkes and gelt for all. The entire community is invited to enjoy this festive holiday celebration.

Chanukah is an eight-day celebration of freedom, commemorating an ancient Jewish victory over tyranny and oppression against overwhelming odds. It is observed this year from the evening of December 22nd through Dec. 30, 2019.

In addition, an Open House will invite visitors to meet Rabbi Alfred Benjamin and Education Director Nancy Mollitor, learn about the congregation’s programs and activities, tour our building, and get information about our Religious School and joining our synagogue family. RSVPs are greatly appreciated.
