Along the way into our Passover journey we will encounter friends new and old, meaningful readings in English and Hebrew, song, and delicious food. We hope you can join us for an evening of connection, learning and fun.

Please join us for our Community Seder on Saturday, April 23, at 6:00 pm. Great for all ages, the seder will be led by Havurah member Adela Basayne with roles played by other Havurah members and music provided by Havurah musician Beth Hamon. In this thought-provoking, personal, and celebratory seder, we will plan our escape from Egypt together.
Please join Congregation Shaarie Torah for a special second night seder full of song, celebration, kosher food and wine, conversation, learning and connection.
Why is this Seder different from all other Seders? Tonight we celebrate with Song! The Torah teaches us that the exodus from Egypt began with a Song. When they found water in the wilderness the Israelites broke out in song. And Moses says goodbye at the end of the Torah with a song. Song is central to the Jewish journey. As we make our way through the Passover story in this traditional seder, we will sing the songs handed down from generation to generation, along with new songs of our own. It will be a night of melody and harmony bringing people together.

Let My People Go!”
Morgan St Theater shares the return of our “Let My People Go!” pop-up. Arguably the Jewish version of Thanksgiving, Passover is rich with oral tradition and infused with symbolic food and drink. Morgan St Theater celebrates Passover with its own ‘dessert seder ‘ (a seder is a symbolic meal that retells a story,) inspired by years of attending seders myself. Each course pays tribute to a Passover-related food memory, from matzo brei to matzo ball soup and a sweet-toothed interpretation of haroset. Morgan St Theater will re-imagine the Passover experience minus all the boring parts. Join us for an evening of stories, inspired-ice cream sundaes and excellent company at “Let My People Go!”
This special holiday pop-up will be hosted at The Clay Pigeon Winery, 815 SE Oak St. Details available with ticket purchase.
