PACHIM KETANIM FROM RABBI YUDIN: In Honor of Parshat Ki-Tisa and Shushan Purim Shabbos keeps us coming and going. In Parshas Ki-Tisa we are continuing with the Mishkan, and after Ha-
shem tells Moshe to appoint Betzalel to oversee its construction, we are taught (31:13) "ach es shabsosai
tishmoru" - you are to keep my Sabbaths. The Kli Yakar makes two observations: First, the Mishkan/Mikdash
is dependent on our keeping of Shabbos; if the Jewish people do not, they will not be worthy of having His
Divine presence dwell in their midst. Second, why the plural, "shabsosai"? The Talmud Shabbos (118b)
teaches that if Israel keeps two Sabbaths they will be redeemed, as there are two aspects of Shabbos. First,
historically commemorating His creating the world. Second, our belief in Olam Habah, a time of complete and
total Shabbos. Therefore, eating and resting is not enough; rather, a focus on spirituality, zmiros, divrei To-
rah, and Torah learning are essential to prepare us for the future agenda of Olam Habah.

NURSERY SCHOOL NEWS Today the children celebrated Purim LSNS style with mishloach manot, Me-gillah, graggers, mishteh and more!! We started off with a Purim parade as the children paraded around the shul dressed in their festive costumes. We gathered together in the big room to hear the "Mixed Up Megillah," with all of the details in the story mixed up. The children had a blast finding all of the mistakes! The children then enjoyed a carnival with face painting, crown/ hamantashen scratch art, a treasure hunt for jewels and rings, rainbow col-ored cup games, hamantash bean bag toss and a squirt-Haman-in-the-face station! It was so much fun! The children and the Morot had a blast! We look forward to seeing you all for more fun activities on Sunday morning at the PCL/ LSNS breakfast. There will be slime, counting balls, building blocks and an estimation station! Shabbat Shalom!!
