Incredible Passover Seder & Selling Chametz

CELEBRATE PASSOVER with us

Passover: 2nd Night Seder, Sunday, April 13

We are extremely grateful to Erik Richmond and Annette Demsey for generously underwriting a portion of the cost so that everyone who wishes to attend the seder are able to do so. Erik and Annette have made this gift in loving memory of his mother, Donna Winkler (z”l), who loved Passover more than any other holiday and who left this world just before Passover 2022.

Because of their gift, we are able to offer a range of pricing for the seder. We encourage you to select the level that feels best and also helps support the community message of inclusivity. Additional dollars raised during this campaign will help to replenish our weekly Kiddush fund.

Sunday, April 13, 6:30pm
Doors open 6:30pm, Seder begins 6:45pm.

Nobody will be turned away for financial reasons. Contact Jemi Kostiner Mansfield at executivedirector@shaarietorah.org or (503)226-6131 x101 if this applies to you.
