Passover 2021/5781
Passover is a time when we traditionally gather with our extended family and friends. As social distancing continues one year into the COVID-19 pandemic, we are once again forced to rethink our plans and join together over the internet. We hope our Beth Or families continue to find creative ways to celebrate while remaining safe. Please use this page as a resource for celebrating Passover at home. Scroll down for information and links to our community Seders and services.
Chag Sameach!
