Beginning the first night of Chanukah, December 25, keep an eye on your temple communications. Each evening during Chanukah, TBE clergy and staff will share a thoughtful message with a brief intention to inspire and uplift your celebration. These intentions are designed to bring focus and meaning to the eight nights, helping us reflect on the values and themes of Chanukah while connecting as a community.
You’ll find these in your inboxes each evening.
