After waking up early Friday morning, Chabad-Lubavitch families from the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, N.Y., prayed the morning services, read the Scroll of Esther, and headed out to bring the joy of Purim to Jewish senior citizens.

It was just past 7:00 a.m. when cars packed with boys and girls dressed up in their Purim costumes traveled out to the Midwood section of Brooklyn, N.Y., a 45 minute drive from Crown Heights.
