This year Purim will be celebrated on Saturday Night February 27th and Sunday February 28th.

Our very successful Purim Honors Greeting program will take place again this year. Continuing our tradition, The Stanton Street Shul will assist its friends in fulfilling the mitzvah of Matanos LeEvyonim, while helping the Shul at the same time. This will be accomplished through our Purim Honors Greetings. A beautiful Purim Greeting Card will be mailed to the friend of the Shul you wish to honor. A portion of the monies collected will be given to at least two individuals in our community.

To participate in this program, please click here to download our shul list. Circle the name or number next to each individual you would like to send a greeting (minimum of two members) for the price of $5 per greeting or $4 per greeting when 25 or more are selected. As a special offer, you can send greetings to all friends of the Shul for $360. Please note that friends receiving honors from multiple senders will receive a single greeting with multiple signatories.

If you wish to send to the entire list, you may place your order online on our Shop / Donate page and selecting the “Purim Honors Greetings – Complete Shul List” option.

Otherwise please send your completed list and check made out to “Stanton Street Shul”. Your check must be received by Thursday February 18. If you cannot print out the PDF, you may also e-mail the full list of names to purim@stantonstshul.com.

We hope you enjoy this opportunity to fulfill this important mitzvah.

We have created a new blog for about the conservation work on the synagogue’s wall paintings that is scheduled to begin at the end of July 2009. We’ll be posting some information about the history of the building, the paintings, and of course plenty of pictures as the work progresses. Please feel free to ask questions, make comments and enjoy!
