April 5, 2023 by HCRJ Web Admin

Dear Friends,

Tonight will mark the first night of Passover, and as we gather for Seder meals, Jews across the globe will engage in recounting our story of our ancestral Exodus from Egypt. For countless generations, the tradition has served as an eternal reminder that it is our responsibility to work for freedom and justice in the world. By retelling the story of the Israelite journey from slavery to freedom, we have continued to teach and inspire a collective desire to pave a path for the redemption of all people in every generation.

May the Seders we share with family and friends inspire us to build bridges of hope in a broken world and may the matzah we eat help us gain a sense of empathy for the needs of those around us every day.

Happy Passover,
Steve
