Passover Matching

This year we'll be matching Beth Emet members to celebrate the Passover Seder together. Many of us can recall how, when we were kids, our parents would crowd extra chairs around the dining room table to make space for a few extra people.

Aside from being a great way to connect with fellow congregants, the act of sharing one's home and meal is considered more honor than obligation.

Folks who host or attend a seder will find themselves forging new ties with one another, as well as deepening their connection to the Beth Emet community. Whether you have extra space at your table or are interested in joining someone's celebration, please contact Margaux at ext. 300, who would just love to make a match for you!
