Preparing for Pesach can be a daunting task. The Rabbinical Assembly Pesach Guide aims to make the process less intimidating and to answer common questions about getting ready for the holiday. Please note that there are several unique aspects to Passover preparation when the Seder begins on Saturday night. The rabbi will send an email highlighting these differences. If you need clarification on anything in this guide, please contact Rabbi Israel. If it is an urgent issue, please make sure to send him a text message.
In order to ensure that we fulfill the mandate of the Hagaddah “Let all who are hungry come eat,” we seek hosts and guests to join in in-person or on-line seders. A couple, family or individual can volunteer to serve as host and use Zoom or another virtual platform to bring in guests who aren’t able to attend a seder with others. A couple, family or individual can volunteer to serve as host for an in person seder. If you would like to host or be hosted, please complete this form by April 4.
