Religious School Annoucements

Not to be missed! This Saturday, February 23rd at 7 p.m. The Premiere showing of “Our Paths to Gainesville: One Temple’s Story”.  This is a documentary film starring YOUR children as they explore how their family came to Gainesville and what decisions were made along the way to be and stay Jewish.  The film will show at 7 p.m. (aprox. 20 minutes long) and there will be popcorn, drinks, and much more to enjoy before, during and after the show!

Purim Carnival is Coming! March 23rd from 11-2:

The Purim committee is excited about bringing you the best Purim Carnival yet, and more volunteers are needed.  There will be a work day on March 2nd, from 9-12am.  Anyone can participate, for any amount of time, and all help is greatly appreciated. 

In this year’s auction, each class will be creating a basket full of donated goods to auction off.  Please bring items that are related to your child’s class theme to Temple by March 2nd.

Class Themes:

• K-1:  Games (deck of cards, dice, Backgammon, chess, etc.)
• 2-3:  Spa (soap, bath fuzzies, pedicure certificate, lotion, etc.)

***Don’t forget your personal history homework assignment for Sunday School this week!  The timeline is expanding to include your family’s history such as when they moved to America and Gainesville, parents & grandparents wedding dates, opening of a family business, and the first family vacation to Europe or Israel.  Please send children with this information in list format—no essay required!***

See you all on Saturday Night! Sunday School this Sunday as usual 9 a.m.
