Latkes, latkes and more latkes in Narragansett

Congregation Beth David (CBD) of Narragansett hosted two programs during the week of Hanukkah and it was raining latkes at both! 

Honorable Menschen – an a cappella group of graduate students and young professionals from the Boston area – drew an audience of 80 on Dec. 6. Performing Hanukkah songs in Hebrew and English, and mixing in a little bit of Yiddish, they delighted a mixed audience of children and adults. A casual lunch of latkes, pizza, veggies and homemade sufganiyot with a gorgeous view of Narragansett Bay from the ballroom of the newly refurbished Aqua Blue Inn and Conference Center, and the significant support of Jim Le Donne of Amalfi Catering all made for a thoroughly wonderful Hanukkah treat.

Almost a week later, on Dec. 11, Congregation Beth David hosted a joint Kabbalat Shabbat service and kosher deli supper with Rabbi Richard Perlman and congregants of West Bay Community Jewish Center. More than 60 people attended.

Congreagtion Beth David has had many events this past year including Shirim Shabbats on the beach, a Sukkahfest, and a Purim Carnival last March that was open to the public.  For questions or information contact Harris Chorney, president, at hrchorney@verizon.net.
