  • Between now and Purim, we will be having special shiurim in honor of Purim - please see below for next weeks full schedule, and we hope you'll join! Shiurim will be archived at https://agudah.org/torah-projects/ if you missed them when they played live.
Spreading Simchas Adar with Bnos
Adar is here, and, masks or no masks, Bnos is bringing smiles to girls' faces!

We're inviting girls in grades 1 – 8 to get into the Adar spirit at our Pre-Purim Virtual Event. Girls can call in to hear an exciting story from a master storyteller. Shhhhh! The exact details are a surprise.

But we want to spread Adar happiness even further. Together with Bnos Bikur Cholim, we're introducing an amazing new contest at the virtual event. We're challenging our Bnosers to call or write to a senior three or four times from Rosh Chodesh Adar through Purim.

Senior citizens, as a group, are struggling with loneliness from their year-long quarantine. More than anyone, they could use a simcha infusion. While nothing can replace in-person visits, phone calls and letters are the next best thing.

Girls can call or write to bubbies, zaydies, neighbors, friends – any senior they're close to or would like to become close to. To get the girls started, we're providing a template for letter writing. However, we're encouraging the girls to add personal touches to the letters. Girls who participate in the contest will be entered into a raffle for an exciting prize.

The Pre-Purim Virtual Event is at 6:30 pm EST on Thursday, February 18. Call 425.436.6277, pin 244274#. We can't wait to have you join us!
