Virtual Community Chanukah Candle Lighting

Chanukah menorah with all 9 candles litRespectAbility celebrated seven great nights of Chanukah fun (taking Friday December 3rd off for Shabbat to relax and reflect). Each night we lit candles as a virtual group. Additionally, we featured two great members of our community who shared a very short (3-5 minute) and upbeat personal story or remark about Chanukah. Celebrations included candle lighting, maybe a song, the candle lighting prayers and perhaps a little schmoozing. It was very informal.
