Shoshana Z'hava bat Yonatona V'Len

On the night of Friday, December 26, Scarlet Rose was named at Temple Beth Israel. Her Hebrew name is Shoshana Z'hava. Shoshana means rose and Z'hava means golden. The "Gold" part of her name comes from my great grandmother, Goldie, who my Aunt Shirley is also named after. So, her English name means "red rose" and her Hebrew name means "golden rose."

It was on the 6th night of Hanukkah, so the synagogoue had a special service for Hanukkah as well. Not the best picture, but this is right after the naming ceremony.

Here we are on the bimah (pulpit), with the Torah behind us.

Here are all the many different Hanukkah menorahs lit on the bimah (pulpit).

And these are pictures during the oneg (gathering) afterwards.
