Purim is often celebrated in congregations with carnivals, family activities, social justice and other programs. See the ideas below, and share what's happening in your community.
Purim spiels are often a big part of the celebration. A Purim-spiel (pronounced SHPEEL, rhymes with "reel") is a humorous skit
presented on Purim. Most of them parody the story of the Book of
Esther, but it is also common for congregations to take the opportunity
to poke some gentle fun at themselves and their idiosyncrasies. Submit a video of your congregation's spiel using the form below, so we can post it here!
Find dozens of Purim Spiels at the Communicate! Resource Bank. Just select "Purim" or "Spiels" from the keyword list to view the entries, or select Summary #1891.
