Happy Passover!

On the evening of Saturday, April 12, families across our Jewish community will come together to begin the observance of Passover, an enduring celebration of faith, freedom, and perseverance.


This sacred holiday invites reflection on the journey from bondage to liberation, reminding us of the power of hope, tradition, and the strength of the human spirit. It is a time to honor the past, share meaningful stories at the Seder table, and look ahead with faith in what’s to come.


As Passover approaches, we extend our warmest wishes to all who are preparing to observe. May this season bring you peace, renewal, and joyful moments with loved ones.


Chag Sameach!
