I trust you had enjoyable and meaningful Seders the first two nights of the holiday. What a great time of year this is when we get together with family and friends to celebrate the birth of our nation. It’s truly a time of renewal, personally and collectively as a people, and the amazing weather we’ve had adds to the wonderful mix.

After very enjoyable and well attended services during the first two days (I must say I was pleasantly surprised) I once again invite you to join us at shul during these last days of Pesach which are considered to be of great significance. (You can read lots about them on our featured links below). With the holidays coming on Saturday on Sunday, take the time out to be in shul, thank Hashem for all of your blessings and pray for everything good for your family and Klal Yisroel.

Here’s the schedule of services for the last days of the Pesach:

Friday night April 25
Evening Services: 7:30PM

Saturday (7th of Pesach) April 26
Morning Services: 9:30AM
M incha/Maariv service: 7:30 PM

Sunday (8th day of Pesach) April 27
Morning Services: 9:30AM, Yiskor: 11AM;
Feast of Moshiach 7:30 PM. This is a “Kiddush-like” celebration where we drink the four cups in anticipation of the future redemption with Moshiach.

Ah guten Moed!
(Lit.: Have a good festival. This is the traditional greeting during the intermediate “weekdays” of the holiday.)

	Passover with Chabad

FEAST OF MOSHIACH: APRIL 27
The last day of Passover ("Acharon Shel Pesach") is particularly associated with Moshiach and the future redemption. Rabbi Israel Baal Shem Tov instituted the custom of partaking of a "Moshiach's meal" on the afternoon of the last day of Passover; in addition to the matzah eaten at "Moshiach's meal", the Rebbes of Chabad added the custom of drinking four cups of wine, as in the seder held on Passover's first days. Join us at Chabad on the last day of Pesach, April 27, 7:30 PM for this special feast.
