A Special Virtual Passover Seder celebration will be held on Sunday, March 28, the second night starting at 6 PM. There will be a brief Passover Haggadah service led by Joe Goldovitz. Congregation Sinai President Jack Gartner shares, “This annual celebratory event will be open to our entire Greater Central Florida community. Everyone is encouraged to clear out their chametz, so they can safely participate from their own homes this year.
Congregation Sinai helps our Central Florida community celebrate all Jewish
holidays with special events and services. These virtual service events are
free and open to the entire community. Sinai will start with a regular
Friday evening Kabbalat Shabbat Service that will be virtually broadcast
from the synagogue on March 26th. On Sunday night, everyone will be invited
to use the 30 Minute Seder booklets used in the past. These Haggadot
booklets are also available to be purchased inexpensively online at:

Passover: The Passover Seder is an important annual ritual that is performed by a community or by multiple generations of a family. Also known as ‘Pesach’, the special family Seder dinners help Jews commemorate the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. This holiday also celebrates the “Passing Over” of the evil forces of destruction, and the sparing of the firstborn of the Israelites on the eve of the Exodus. The Haggadah story is retold by families worldwide from the Book of Exodus in The Hebrew Bible. Passover is often celebrated with great traditions, rituals, prayers and ceremony, especially with Seders held on the first and second nights.
Special Seder Dinners: While keeping our service on your tabletop computer for everyone to participate together with your family, we suggest you serve traditional matzo ball soup, matzoh, charoses, gefilte fish, chopped liver, beef brisket, roast chicken, tzimmes and roast potatoes with your favorite hot and cold beverages. For dessert, we suggest you have matzoh bark, chocolates, fruit rings and a variety of coconut macaroons.
