Chanukah

The eight-night festival of lights, celebrated together with Chabad of Surrey.

About Chanukah

Chanukah is the eight-night festival of lights. It celebrates the Maccabees' victory and the small jar of oil that burned for eight days in the Temple in Jerusalem.

Each night we light the menorah, adding one more flame, and bring a little more light into the world. It is a time for family, for latkes and doughnuts, for dreidel and for coming together as a community.

Whether you are lighting a menorah for the first time or have done it all your life, you are welcome to celebrate Chanukah with us.
