Tomorrow is our annual Purim Party at our church. Purim is a minor Jewish holiday which celebrates the story of Esther. It involves a reading of the story from Scripture complete with costumes from those who wish and with booing and hissing whenever the name of Haaman is spoken. It is a really fun time and a great way to enjoy and celebrate something that God did in history. I love the association for my children of fun with a Scripture story.

I wish my church would celebrate this! I missed it by the date but I plan to still do it with my boys asap. I got to do this with a group once and it was sooooooooo fun. (0= I too wished we lived close ( actually I wish I was your next door neighbor (0= to have tea and talk anytime we felt like it ) < I can't remember if I said that already, lol.
God Bless
In Him,<><
