“What miracle do you wish for this Chanukah?” The Chronicle asked children of all ages at the Dec. 7 community-wide Chanukah event, “Making Miracles Happen,” sponsored by the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center.
I want peace for the whole world as my miracle.
Yonatan Altman-Shafer
I’d like my grandpa to be alive and my Mama’s friends to be alive.
Elan Palay
That it rains dogs cause I want one.
Yaakov Levin
Chanukah every day.
Justin Sinykin
For the world to have peace.
Sophie Shapiro
Gimel. Israel.
Jared Cayle
Shmulie Freilich
Hazzan Jeremy Stein
I hope for a miracle like having everyone be equal.
Tori Cayle
I hope for a miracle for poor people not to be poor.
Allyiah Gowelly
I want to have the wars (all of them) stop permanently. That would be a real Chanukah miracle.
Simone Klemann
That all the Jews will live in Israel.
Aden Wasserman
A miracle I would like to see this Chanukah is for all the sick girls in my class to have a refuah shleima [full recovery]. Lots of girls have recently been sick with various things: colds, coughs, fevers, etc. Hopefully G-d will heal everyone very soon.
Sara Zaitschek
A miracle that I want to see is that I could fly because I will be like a bird.
Yaakov Zaitschek
This Chanukah I would like there to be peace. I really want everyone to be at peace and not have to worry. We should be happy. It’s Chanukah!
Talya Levin
A miracle that I would like to see this Chanuukah is that all people who don’t have a warm home or money to provide for their families are able to celebrate the holidays this winter.
Elissa Koppel
No bad people.
Steven Dorf
It’s a miracle that I can earn money doing what I love!
