    Multi-Cultural Passover Freedom Seder

    JCRC and its partners host multi-cultural Passover Freedom commemorations around the Bay Area, bringing together diverse groups in celebration of our similar stories of freedom from bondage. At our seders, we share the story and customs of Passover and the story of the Jewish Exodus from Egypt with the broader community, and together commemorate freedom.

    The 2009 Passover Freedom Seders will be held in San Francisco, Marin and on the Peninsula. For more information for the SF Seder, contact Jessica Trubowitch, for the Marin Seder: Suzan Berns, and for the Peninsula Seder: Karen Stiller. Jewish Volunteer Day @ Project Homeless Connect
