"The Seder Belongs to YOU!"
Storytelling Shabbaton and Education Program
By Tess Goldblatt, Education Coordinator
One of the central Passover themes is to "tell the story." After all, Hagaddah means "the telling." Mark your calendars and clip the dates below!Renowned storyteller and author Cherie Karo Schwartz joins the RST family for a Pre-Pesach weekend to celebrate and prepare for Passover.
As excerpted from Schwartz's book co-authored with Barbara Rush A Worldwide Celebration: The Kids' Catalog of Passover:
We reread the Hagaddah each year because the Torah tells us… four times-that we must tell the story to our children…. But do you think the story can be told and retold all these years without changing even a little bit? ...Every year, as new family and friends join in the celebration, the story is given new life thanks to the new questions, new recipes, new prayers, and new hopes that each new generation brings to the seder table.…This year it is your turn to tell the story.The seder belongs to you.
It's another weekend not to miss!
