My thanks to everyone involved in making Purim at New London
such a fabulous experience.
And now Pesach!
First night Seder is Monday night 10th April. If
you are looking for hospitality, or able to offer hospitality, please let me know.
The New London Communal Seder, led by Cantor Jason
and I, is Tuesday night 11th April. Booking is open and we urge
anyone planning on coming to book in time to allow proper arrangements to be
made for catering. It’s a terrific night and members and guests are all
invited. More info here.
Our flagship pre-Pesach event, the Taste of Refuge Seder, has
already sold out. My apologies for those who had planned to book later. We will
share reflections and also some of the materials we will be using after the
event.
Shabbat 1st April will focus on preparing
for the Seder. I will be teaching and have some terrific material to share
as part of the services. All welcome.
Shabbat 8th April will feature, after the
service, a communal sing-a-seder-along with Cantor Jason. Bring your favourite
tunes.
The 2017 NLS Pesach - Guide to Kashrut is now on-line.
For more on selling Chametz through me, look out for subsequent mailings sent
to this list.
Other things to look forward to in the coming month;
29th March the book launch of New London
member Anne Summers’ terrific Christian and Jewish Women in Britain 1880-1940. More here.
Monday morning 10th April, 7:15am, Shacharit
featuring a Siyum on the occasion of the Fast of the Firstborn, all (not just
firstborns) warmly invited.
Purim, in the best possible way, was chaotic. And now the
journey to Seder - order. May that journey be matched by an equal journey from
darkness to light and oppression to freedom for all.
It’s my honour to be able to share this journey with you
all,
Chag Kasher V’Sameach - A happy and kosher celebration,
Rabbi Jeremy
