Chanukah Live 2020
Friday evening December 11th
6 PM – 7:30 PM
Please enjoy this video recap of Chanukah Live 2020
Shir Ami has found a way in this unusual year of 2020 to make all of our Zoom events feel warm, celebratory and participatory! We were able to do it for Passover, High Holy Days and for each Shabbat Service, and we will do it for Chanukah Live via Zoom on the 2nd night of Chanukah. We know that many people feel isolated at home as they try to stay healthy. Being part of our Chanukah celebration will provide you with fun, spirit, connection and a sense of community. We welcome all!
Leading up to Chanukah Live 2020, we will offer an evening of song learning with Cantor Abramson via Zoom on Monday, November 30th for those who want to learn new songs that we will be singing during Chanukah Live. Although we won’t be able to have our famous and delicious pot luck dinner together, we will instead share our favorite Latka and Sufganiyah (Jelly donut) recipes with each other the week before, so that each home can come prepared to enjoy virtually eating Chanukah delicacies together during our service.
