“My task is not to debate whether I’m a Jew or not, but to figure out what kind of Jew I am. For me, finding a secular Jewish community with progressive politics fits my version of that identity.”

This past Sunday, we held our first-ever virtual Seder with over 600 people participating from their homes. Despite the global pandemic preventing us from joining together in-person, we still came together, returning to an age-old ritual in an entirely new way.
Whether you are celebrating Seder with loved ones at home, online, or on your own, we invite you to use our Haggadah with links to music, our Seder plate guide, and our community recipe book.
For the longer Seder reflection and resources to take action around reparations and racial justice, read the full message here.
A copy of the recorded virtual Seder was sent to all who registered and to dues-paying members. If you would like a recording of the readers to watch and follow along with, please contact michelle@circleboston.org or consider becoming a member.
From all of us at BWC, we wish you and your loved ones a zissen Peysakh, a sweet, joyful, meaningful and healthy Passover.
