I took a few minutes this past Sunday afternoon, Rosh Chodesh Adar Beis, to visit Congregation Ahavas Yisroel’s Purim Carnival. Talmidim and talmidos of members at Rav Hershel Welcher’s shul enjoyed paradigmatic carnival booths, like Coke or Pepsi, staffed by elder bachurim, as Jews worldwide gear up for Purim jubilation. Pizza, cotton candy, and more fun kept all entertained!
The Sunday excitement began shortly after 1:30 p.m. as girls filled the basement of the kehillah for activities; then at 4:00 p.m., the boys took over for an hour and a half of nonstop fun. A special shout out goes to all who dressed up in their delightful Purim costumes for this amazing celebration shared with friends.
