Congregation Beth Israel To Hold Community Hanukkah Celebration

The Religious School of Congregation Beth Israel in Scotch Plains will hold a community-wide Hanukkah party on Saturday, December 8, from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. The celebration, which coincides with the seventh night of Hanukkah, is free and open to the public.

The evening will begin with Havdalah, a special ceremony that marks the end of Shabbat, followed by the lighting of the Hanukkah menorah. Students in the Religious School will also perform songs and skits.

In addition, there will be food, arts and crafts activities, and a Hanukkah-themed escape room.

“We are eager to welcome members of the community to join us in celebrating Hanukkah together,” said Lev Metz, Director of Congregational Learning and Engagement at Congregation Beth Israel. "The Hanukkah party provides a great opportunity to showcase the warm environment we have at CBI, as well as the rich learning experience of our Religious School families."

Congregation Beth Israel is located at 18 Shalom Way, Scotch Plains, NJ (corner of Martine Avenue). For more information, contact Lev Metz at Lev@CBIsp.org or at (908) 889-1830.
