Calling All Megilat Esther Readers!
The Bayit is offering in-person and Zoom options for hearing Megillat Esther on Purim. However there are still those who are homebound and cannot access Zoom easily. If you are able to read Megillah for others; if you or someone you know needs a home reading, please reach out to Rabbanit Bracha at rabbanitbracha@thebayit.org.
Mishloach Manot Matching!
We are reviving a beloved Bayit tradition to deliver Mishloach Manot packages to our friends and neighbors who would appreciate a visit and some extra Purim cheer. If you would like to be matched with one or more recipients, please reach out to caringcallers@thebayit.org.
