Don’t forget the four mitzvot of Purim,
carefully observed for centuries!
1) Hear the Megillah
a sing-song chant from a parchment scroll. Be sure to hear it both Purim night (Saturday, March 23 at night) and Purim day (Sunday, March 24)
2) Give gifts of food
!
Ensure your friends and neighbors catch the Purim spirit by sending a package with at least two types of food to one or more of your fellows.
3) Give charity !
Don’t forget about our poorest brethren –
share the Purim joy by giving any amount to at least two impoverished folk, or donating to at least two different charities.
4) Eat a festive meal
!
Celebrate properly at a real Purim feast! Sit down with your family, sing Purim songs, and be merry!
