Passover

PASSOVER BEGINS SOON. GET READY FOR ANOTHER GREAT SEDER! This year’s CJC Seder will be on the second night of Passover (Sunday, April 13) at 5pm in Half Moon Bay.

Register NOW for our CJC Passover Seder

During the seder, we retell the story of our enslaved ancestors who were freed from oppression and who then entered into a covenant of mutuality with the Divine and with one another in community. It took the Israelites forty years; we’re still finding our way. And yet we celebrate the fact that we are free to be on that journey, and free to renew the covenant which includes respect and reverence for all life.

The seder will be led by Rabbi Moshe and a host of volunteers, making it a joyous, musical, and fully participatory experience. Children are most welcome. There will be activities to keep them engaged and a prize for whoever finds the Afikomen.

Once you register, you’ll receive the location details and the potluck sign-up spreadsheet which also includes volunteer opportunities. Don’t wait…

We will be using an ecologically oriented haggadah, The Promise of the Land, by Rabbi Ellen Bernstein, which will help us learn more about the connections between freedom and our responsibility as stewards of the land from which we derive our sustenance and well-being.
