Welcome to Craft Schooling Sunday! Once again, we are in the middle of a war, which is of course stressful and worrisome, to say the least, but not unfamiliar unfortunately. Only this time the stakes are very very high and can hopefully bring about real change in the world.
And friends, the Jewish holiday of Purim which celebrates the triumph of good over evil, happened in Persia (Iran) and is coming up this Monday night, which means history is repeating itself? This morning, shabbat Zachor, (meaning remember) we read the yearly Torah portion, which all adults must hear, in which we stamp out Amalek, the ultimate evil, and this year as many across Israel were literally stamping their feet during the reading of the name Amalek, the evil Iranian ruler (who incidently was a Holocaust denier) was assassinated. Now there is less evil in the world, and hopefully the people of Iran will have a chance to build a country that is fit for human life! Okay, lets take a look at the features, and Purim Sameach!
