Journeys to Passover Community Seder

Community Seder at TBC
More than 100 congregants and friends gathered at TBC last Saturday evening for the Second Night Community Seder. The seder was led by Rabbi Bearman and Cantor Sobel with lots of participation from the congregation. Everyone took turns reading from the Haggadah, and the children hunted for the Afikomen. We enjoyed a traditional and delicious catered dinner of matzo ball soup, chicken, brisket, stuffing, and fruit and home-made macaroons for dessert. Many thanks to the Sisterhood and Ritual Committee members for their beautiful preparations, especially to Bonnie Heft and Michele Scruton, who organized the event for the second year in a row.
Pictures here!
(Thanks to Terry Ullman for the dispatch!)
