Menorah Lighting

Friday, November 17, 2023

The New Reform Temple Fourth Annual Outside Menorah Lighting December 7 – December 14

Each night of Hanukkah we will be lighting our inspiring nine-foot outdoor menorah at The New Reform Temple in front of the Krasne Garden.
The eight menorah lightings will take place each night starting the evening of December 7 and ending the evening December 14. All lightings will take place at 6:00 pm except for Friday, December 8. (See below) We are planning for our lighting ceremony to be about 15-20 minutes. Come enjoy singing together and leave with Hanukkah chocolate gelt and jelly donuts! On Friday night, December 8, we will be lighting the Menorah at 5:30 pm followed by Shabbat Services on 6:00 pm. After services, we will have a delicious Oneg Shabbat which will include Latkes. Come hungry.

Prior reservations are requested. Your reservation will help us plan for our refreshment each night.
