Come one, come all! 
Gesher's Rabbis Laurie Rutenberg and Gary Schoenberg invite you to their Passover Seder.
Join their "caravan of ex-slaves" as we "travel" together on a theatrical Passover journey in search of freedom.  This immersive and theatrical Passover journey moves from an encampment in the desert, through the Reed Sea to a festive, delicious indoor banquet in celebration of our freedom.
 
Gesher will provide slave clothing, exit visas and scrumptious sustenance for all.  Together, we will ask the traditional four questions and some other ones too: "What does it mean to welcome the stranger?" and "How are we slaves, and what is the nature of our journey to freedom, today?" 

We encourage you to bring pillows on which to sit and to dress warmly, with layers.  All ages welcome including singles, couples, and families. We especially welcome first-timers to a Passover Seder, intermarried families, people new to Judaism and to Portland, and the LGBTQ community.
 
RSVP is a must. Visit www.ourjewishhome.org for more information and to reserve your space.
Adults: $36; Teens and Students: $22; Children ages 4-12: $15.
No one is turned away for inability to pay.
