Mitzvah Menorah Gift Wrapping
Gifts that were purchased by congregants for our Mitzvah Menorah project will be organized on tables according to age and gender of the children. Wrapping paper and card supplies will be out on tables so that we can wrap the gifts to be distributed by Tikkun Ha'ir to the Cathedral Center, Casa Maria, Milwaukee Women’s Shelter, and Hope House.
Didn't take a candle yet? There are still candles available in the lobby of Congregation Sinai or call the office so we can pick one out for you over the phone. See the list on the right for shopping suggestions.
Dreidel Bowl 201
Think you have what it takes to be the Dreidel spinning champion of Sinai? We will have multiple contests to enter including: longest spin, most gimmels in one minute, and most creative spin. Prizes will be awarded.
Sufganiyot Oneg
What are sufganiyot, you ask?
sufganiyot: סופגניות (pronounced SOOF-gah-nee-OHT) are round jelly doughnuts eaten in Israel and around the world during Chanukah. The doughnut is deep-fried, filled with jelly or custard, and then topped with sugar. At Chanukah, we observe the custom of eating fried foods in commemoration of the miracle associated with the Temple oil.
Mmmmmm.... yummy!
Mitzvah Menorah
Grab a candle for boys and girls, ages 0 to 18. No gift cards, cash or large toys - families have limited storage space and move frequently. Items should be portable.
