December Temple Happenings December Temple Happenings

It has been a bustle of activity at Temple B’nai Sholem this December!

On December 8th at the Temple Building, we installed our new Chanukah menorah. All are invited  for the lighting at 5pm on December 25th, the first night of Chanukah. Immediately following, there will be another lighting down at Union Point Park at 5:30pm for the lighting of our menorah that is part of the Town of New Bern holiday display. We hope you join us!

On Friday December 14th the Temple once again participated in the Downtown New Bern live window displays where members of the Temple were able to share the joy of Chanukah with our friends and neighbors Downtown
