Incorporating Oct 7th Into Your Passover Seder
with Rabbi Jaffe
This year's passover Seder, replete with messages of freedom from bondage and triumph over evil will no doubt be affected by the long shadow cast by the continued ramifications of October 7th. How do we celebrate freedom while members of the Jewish family remain held captive? How do we thank God for salvation in light of continued anguish?
Join Rabbi Jaffe for a morning of discussion, study and interpretation. Together, we will create art pieces for our seder tables, that speak to the current situation and our prayers for enduring peace. As we wrestle for meaning in the Jewish celebration of redemption, join us in sharing our collective wisdom on making this year's Passover Seder a meaningful and thoughtful ritual practice.
