We wish all our Jewish friends a Happy Purim. Purim in Ioannina was the most popular holiday, a time for children and adults to dress in costume and read the Megilat Esther. Both Esther (in all its variations; Astro, Estir, Steroula, Sterina and Stella) and Mordechai were popular Yanniote names. Every married couple received their own Megillah on their first Purim and we, at Kehila Kedosha Janina, have a large collection of Megilot Esther.
Join us on Wednesday, February 28 beginning at 5:15pm for our Community Purim Party and Megillah Reading, including a special Greek Jewish Dinner! RSVP to amarcus@kkjsm.org.
