PURIM IN PAVLODAR

On March 13 and 14 all Jewish world celebrated a cheerful holiday - Purim. In Purim we should execute 4 commandments: to listen to reading of scroll Ester, to send each other mishloakh manot, to assist requiring, arranging cheerful celebratory meal with Purimshpil.

Therefore to observe all commandments participants of Female club of Pavlodar Hesed in eve of a holiday have baked homentash, and children from the Children's Day time Centre have carried them clients of Hesed, which could not reach on community holiday. This year Purim spent together with synagogue in cafe "Rustam". Everyone, who has come on a holiday, received a colourful card with congratulations.

The holiday began with cheerful Purimshpil, in performance of Family club. Interestingly also it was entertaining once again to see and to hear a history of those far events.

During reading of "scroll of Ester", which for all Pavlodar community was read by chief rabbi Shmuel Karnaukh, at a mention of a name Amman in a hall there was an unimaginable noise.

The holiday kosher meal was finished. Were spoken toasts with wishes of the world, goods that all our alarms and the fears passed, and all of us together had fun from all soul and with easy heart have told each other Lekhaim!

And in March 19 in Hesed in family club was conducted Purimgame. Each family has prepared game connected to traditions and customs of a holiday.
