# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Names We Carry: A Celebration of Hebrew Names and Identity
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 03:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Explore Hebrew shemot (names), learn what they mean, and honor family traditions. Create keepsakes like a Yad to use on your Brit Mitzvah or Torah reader journey, or other personalized jewelry and keychains with your Hebrew name. Younger siblings are welcome with adult supervision, as some activities include small beads.

Adults can also discover or deepen their own Hebrew names and reflect on naming customs, including the bar/bat + parent connection and tribe (ex. Malka Lita bat Dinah Ronit v' Hershel Yosef ha'Kohen). Share stories, celebrate heritage, and carry your names forward together.

PJ Our Way students (ages 9–12) and their families — including grandparents, grandfriends, and community members — are invited to join us for this FREE special partnership event between Temple Israel and Jewish Federation of New Hampshire’s PJ Our Way program! Registration required.

Special thank you to our program sponsor, Judy Craig, for bringing us wooden letter beads from Israel!

Sunday, April 19, 2026, 3:00pm at Temple Israel, Portsmouth
