As we spend a second year davening from home and sharing our seders over Zoom, it can be difficult to keep track of the "what, when and where" of our Passover traditions. Below, please find a helpful guide with links to all of the upcoming holiday services.
For more information about preparing your home for Passover, please consult the guide in the
Beth Tzedec Bulletin. And be sure to
supplement your seder with insights and teaching from our spiritual leadership team!
If you do not have a seder to join, we would encourage you to register for the
Second Seder with the Wernicks - an opportunity to share a virtual seder with our community via Zoom.
We wish you and your family a
Hag Pesah Kasher v'Sameah and continued good health.
