PASSOVER SEDER FOR ADULTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

Jewish
Community Services (JCS) and the Jewish Community Center (JCC) will hold a Model Seder for adults ages 18 and over with special needs and their families on Thursday,
April 3, 2014.  The cost for attending is $13.50 per person,
and reservations are required by
March 27.   Seder participants
will use a Haggadah prepared especially for the event. They will enjoy
traditional Passover foods and take part in telling the story of Passover and
singing.  Rabbi Tsvi Schur will lead the
Seder, with music provided by locally based Jewish performer Avraham
Rosenblum. 

            Volunteers from JCS, THE ASSOCIATED,
Jewish Volunteer Connection, the Rotary Club of Pikesville, Kiwanis Club of
Pikesville, B’nai B’rith, and the general community will staff the Seder.

            “For over forty years, the Model
Seder has given adults with developmental disabilities the opportunity to
participate in a meaningful and spiritually enriching community celebration of
the Passover holiday. All those involved – guests, volunteers, staff, Seder
leaders, family members – find this event a joyous highlight of the year,” said
Beth Land Hecht, LCSW-C, Manager of JCS Volunteer Services
