Looking for "Beatles"
Purim is almost here and we are working on a very exciting program. It's going to be a spectacular evening and we are planning a beautiful and joyful service combining both the elements of our Friday night service and our very own Purim Spiel - "The Meggilah according to the Beatles!" We sure there are many "Beatle" fans among you who will want to be part of the fun singing these incredible tunes and making this Purim like none we've ever seen here at Temple Israel.
Please contact Cantor Michael Glozman ASAP at 305-781-8742 or mglozman@templeisrael.net so we can organize the choral group and schedule rehearsals for this event which will take place on Friday, February 26. |
