We will look at the Psalms one by one, understanding what each says, how it may have been used originally, and how it may remain meaningful to us.

Sell your
Hametz
before Passover!
Part of preparing for Passover is eliminating all of our
hametz
- food and utensils that are prohibited on Passover. As much as we may try, it is nearly impossible to completely rid our homes of
hametz
, and, in these times especially, it would be inappropriate to let food go to waste. To fulfill the mitzvah of
not
owning
hametz
, you may sell it to a non-Jew for the duration of the holiday. You may
sign up through Ticketleap online
or
return the form in the Bulletin
to designate Rabbi Haaz as your agent to sell your
hametz
.
It is customary when asking someone to sell your
hametz
to make a donation. Donations made through our TicketLeap form will be used to help provide food to people, especially to our high risk population, during this COVID-19 pandemic.
