Children Rebuild the Beit HaMikdash in OU Israel Center
On Thursday November 28, the first day of Chanukah, the OU Israel Center and Machon HaMikdash treated a group of children to a very special Chanukah event. First they explained the meaning of Chanukah with an interactive presentation. Then they guided the children in actually rebuilding the Beit HaMikdash—stone by stone.
You, your children and grandchildren are sure to enjoy the activities the OU Israel Center is offering for the remainder of the Holiday of Lights.
Please note: Details of more activities appear under the photos.
