In this week parsha - Chayei Sara, there is the story of the Yitzchak and Rivka's wedding! Eliezer, Avraham's servant was sent on a mission to find the right wife for Yitzchak his son. He sent him to Charan with 10 camels, jewelry and a letter that said that everything that Avraham owned belonged to his son Yitzchak, hoping that it will convince the girls parents to send her with Eliezer all the way back to Israel.
We had our own Eliezer and Avraham acting out the scene.
Hashem made a special miracle for Eliezer. Normally this trip from Israel to Charan would take many days, but Eliezer had kefitzat haderech - a miracle when someone travels a long distance in a very short time, and he made it to Charan before the day ended. Today we travel with cars, so we design our own car!
When Eliezer arrived to the well he davened to Hashem to help him find the right girl. Yitzchak needed a girl who does Chesed (kindness) so he said whoever helps me and my camels will be the right fit." Hashem answered his tefilah and made Rivka come out to the well.
When Eliezer saw her he notice that a miracle happened and the water rose up toward her! She must be a tzadekes if Hashem made this miracle for her!
Rivka gave water to Eliezer and his camels, and that was a challenging task because camels drink a lot of water!
Nechama and Yossi are showing us how Rivka gave water to all 10 camels!
In honor of this weeks parsha, when Rivka and Yitzchak got married, we learned what is a Jewish wedding, and had our own mock wedding at Gan!

When Yitzchak brought Rivka to Sara's tent the 3 miracles that Sara had before she passed away, came back. The cloud of glory was above the tent at all time, the challah never went bad and there was always planty for everyone, and the shabbat candles stayed lit the whole week!
After learning about Sara's candles we talked about fire safety at gan and had a fire drill.
And the firefighters came to teach us fire safety rules.
Thank you Rabbi Lang for the Chof Cheshvan farbrenging!
