JOIN US FOR TEMPLE EMMANUEL’S COMMUNITY SEDER - MARCH 30, 2010 The eight-day festival of Passover is celebrated in the early spring. It commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. And, by following the rituals of Passover, we have the ability to relive and experience the true freedom that our ancestors gained. Seders are family celebrations using a book called the Haggadah. The Haggadah tells the story of the Exodus from Egypt and explains some of the practices and symbols of the holiday.
Our Temple will be holding a Community Seder on the second evening of Passover, Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Rabbi Mark Newton will conduct our Seder Service. We will be serving a catered, kosher for Passover, four-course dinner. You do not need to be a member of Temple Emmanuel to participate.
We are not taking reservations over the telephone, but if you have any questions please call Lydia Carpe at (781) 245-2414 or email her at
