Ride a horse like Mordecai, bake your own hamantaschen, join King Ahasuerus at his banquet, visit Queen Esther in her beautiful chambers, be careful not to get caught up in palace gossip and intrigue -- all of this and more at Congregation Etz Chayim's Purim ETZtravaganza. This is a great way to celebrate Purim for children 12 and under. Children in 1st grade and under must be accompanied by an adult at all times.See you there!

Run for Their Lives is a global movement founded by Israelis in the Bay Area. Their mission is to raise awareness for the hostages held in Gaza. Each week, groups worldwide come together for family-friendly walks or runs lasting 18 (ח"י) minutes. Participants wear red shirts and carry flags representing the 28 nationalities of the hostages. So far there are 70+ groups across the globe, with new ones joining daily. Our Palo Alto group walks every Sunday at 12:30pm. People can join the silent WhatsApp group for location updates and to participate: https://chat.whatsapp.com/BeEgTk1MGlcDTJb6f5DqLX.
