At last week’s Ahavas Sholom Sisterhood meeting, the focus was on the celebration of Purim, which was observed this year from sundown March 2 to sundown March 3. The holiday celebrates the rescue of the Jewish population from a planned mass murder in the Persian Empire in the 5th century BC, requested by Persian Prime minister Haman, but thwarted by Queen Esther, the Jewish wife of King Ahasuerus, just in time to save her community. At the Sisterhood meeting, one of the attendees is crowned annually as Queen Esther, and this year Joanie Allbee (wearing the tiara) was the choice. Seen with her is Bob Leroe, who spoke about a heroic female spy during World War II, and Maureen Appel, president of Congregation Ahavas Sholom. (Photo courtesy of Laura Eisener)
