The Bet Harim Jewish Community will celebrate Hanukkah on Friday, Dec. 14 at 6 p.m. at the Multi-Faith Center at Shining Mountains, 475 Eighth Ave. EN in Kalispell.

The evening will begin with the traditional Sabbath candle lighting ceremony followed by the lighting of all eight Hanukkah Candles, games of dreidel, gifts, and potato latkes. Participants are asked to bring a dish to share for the potluck dinner and members of the community are welcome to join in the festivities.

“And don’t forget our Community Holiday Celebration one-man performances of ‘This Wonderful Life’ with Luke Walrath and ‘A Christmas Carol’ with David Ackroyd on Dec. 27 and 29 at O’Shaughnessy Center in Whitefish,” Rabbi Allen Secher said. “We will be lighting the Hanukkah candles and telling the story of Hanukkah, the first war for religious freedom, as well. Kids in the audience will be asked to participate in the candle lighting and a special children’s story of Hanukkah will be distributed that evening. Let’s all celebrate this wonderful season together as a caring community.”

For more information about these performances, call 863-2333. To order tickets, call 314-4345 or 862-SHOW. Adult tickets are $20 for each show and children’s under 12 are admitted for $12.

Bet Harim strives to create Jewish spiritual, social and educational atmosphere that is relevant to the practice of Judaism in Montana. The congregation blends traditional Jewish practice with personal participation in services, a love of the outdoors, a strong commitment to community and an inclusive and welcoming manner that satisfies the needs of both Jewish and interfaith families.
