Passover: Past, Present, Potential
Congregation Beth El Spring Shabbaton
6:15 PM | Musical Kabbalat Shabbat
7:15 PM | Shabbat Dinner
On Passover we remember the past as we live today. We honor the generations of the Jewish people. We rejoice in our freedom yearning for justice and dignity for all. We reflect on our memories and dreams. We talk about being Jews and living Jewish lives in this moment. At the Seder table with family and friends we retell the exodus story so our children and grandchildren may understand. Rooted in the past and aware in the present, on Passover we look to envision the potential of Passover’s message for the future.
The meanings we seek on Passover emerge not only from our celebration but also from our preparation. Together, during our Spring Shabbaton let’s get ready for this very special holiday.
Join us for an upbeat Kabbalat Shabbat service accompanied by our Vav Adult Band led by Craig Parks and David Lipsitz. Our spirits will rise in prayer, music, and song as we welcome Shabbat. Enjoy the rituals of Shabbat, a delicious Shabbat Dinner buffet, and each other’s company. Adults and
children, families and friends are all welcome.
Following dinner, we’ll join in conversation with our rabbis and each other discussing Passover ideas, practices, and memories. We’ll also consider themes of personal redemption as we get ready for our Passover Seder celebrations.
Cost: $25 per adult, $15 children 5-12, no charge for chidren 4 & under.
