Siyum B’khorim and Breakfast for the First Born

Monday, March 29, 6:00 am

The day preceding Passover is a special fast day for the first born. The completion of a course of study - a Siyum - allows the first born to celebrate at a Seudat Mitzvah, which exempts them from fasting on this day.

Rabbi Alex Felch will conduct such a Siyum B'khorim and Seudat Mitzvah. All first born sons and daughters are urged to attend (naturally, everyone is invited). Breakfast will be served.

Selling the Chametz

According to our tradition, we may not possess any levened food after the disposal of chametz by the morning before the Seder. Since it is impossible to destroy all of the chametz in one's possession, the Rabbinic authorities have arranged for a symbolic sale called M'chirat Chametz, which is arranged through a rabbi.

The procedure may be arranged by filling out a contract and sending it to the Synagogue any time during the week preceding Passover, but no later than the morning of the first seder.
