Charkov Jews Enjoy Purim Show at Ukrainian Circus
Two thousand people filled the city circus in Charkov, Ukraine for a spectacular Purim show. Lions roared and ‘danced’ to Hava Nagila, and the “Kenya Boys” did an amazing acrobatic show.
Hundreds of men and boys put on tefillin, and over one thousand women and girls were given Shabbos candles. Everyone received Mishloach Manos and enjoyed an amazing program.
Rabbi Moishe Moskovitz spoke about the message of Purim and reminded everyone of the Mitzvos of Purim.
For the Megilla reading, Rabbi Levi Raices dressed up as a soccer fan of the ‘Euro 2012,’ which will be taking place in Kharkov this coming summer.
The Cheder Menachem boys performed in a special choir under the direction of cantor Yitzchak Halfon.
The director of the circus, who had come from Dneprderzhinsk, ‘slipped’ that he was Jewish… and 5 minutes before the circus began he put on tefillin for the first time in his life!
Boruch Hashem the circus was just the beginning of a Purim full of mivtzoim and pe’ulos in Kharkov.
Kol Hakavod!
