Passover Seder Event: A Time to Reconnect with Tradition and Community

Chabad on Campus is excited to invite you to an unforgettable Passover Seder event to be held on April 5th, 2023, at the Hilton Hotel Amsterdam. This year’s Seder promises to be a unique and memorable experience for everyone in attendance, whether you’re a seasoned Seder-goer or new to the tradition.

The Seder will be conducted in English to ensure that everyone can fully participate and understand the significance of each ritual. Doors will open at 7:30 pm for the first course, and at 8 pm, we will light the candles and recite the evening prayers. At 8:30 pm, we will begin the actual Seder, led by a knowledgeable and engaging Rabbi who will guide us through the traditional readings, songs, and symbolic foods.

The Passover Seder is an essential part of Jewish tradition, commemorating the Jewish people’s liberation from slavery in ancient Egypt. It is a time to reconnect with our past, celebrate our freedom, and reflect on the universal themes of redemption and renewal. The Seder is filled with rituals and symbols, such as the bitter herbs, matzah, and the four cups of wine, all of which serve as reminders of the harsh conditions of slavery and the miracle of our redemption.

In addition to the traditional elements of the Seder, Chabad on Campus has planned several surprises and interactive activities to make the evening even more enjoyable and meaningful. You will have the opportunity to meet other students and young professionals from diverse backgrounds, share stories and insights, and connect with your Jewish identity in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The cost of the event is 25 euro for students and young professionals if registered before March 26th, and 35 euro if registered after. For non-students, the cost is 50 euro if registered before March 26th, and 75 euro if registered after. If you’re feeling particularly generous, you can also choose to sponsor the event for 180 euro, which will help ensure that others can participate in the Seder.
