St. Luke's Invites You To A Seder Meal On Sunday, April 6

St. Luke's Church invites you to participate in a traditional Seder Meal on Sunday, April 6 in Willard Hall, at 313 Main Street, in Chester, beginning at 6:00 p.m.

The Seder is a ritual meal that celebrates the Jewish festival of Passover. Christians, whose traditions are rooted in Judaism, share the Passover experience of a people enslaved and then redeemed when God brought them to freedom, to covenant, to a Promised Land.

Through the centuries the ritual of the Passover has allowed each generation of Jews to relive their history and make the story its own. Through the ritual found in this "Haggadah" (the book of readings for the Seder service), Jews and Christians can remember and share the momentous events of God's call and redemption: the Story of Passover.

As we celebrate the Seder at St. Luke's, we are mindful and respect the religious significance of the Seder to our Jewish brothers and sisters and have strived to include some of them in the planning and executing of the meal. The Seder is a family-centered affair and children have a significant part to play. It is rich in tradition and a time for joy, good eating, singing and celebrating God's redemption of us all. We hope you will come join us. Suggested donation: $10 age 12 and up, $7.50 age 5-11, under 5 free.

Please make a reservation by March 30th by calling the Harrisons at 875-2784.
