What is the "Community" in "Community Seder"?

This Seder, always a lovely event, brings together people from across our local Jewish community—including interfaith partners and family members, as well as students. As instructed, we celebrate our exodus from Egypt by observing the Pesach holiday. But also, we connect with friends and community.

Are you Jewish and new to the area? Seeking a welcoming egalitarian Jewish congregation? Looking for Jewish community? We would love to hear from you.

If, instead, you are looking for an educational Seder—a Seder for the broader community to learn about Passover—unfortunately, we likely cannot accommodate your needs at this time because of limited space.
