Pesach

At Chabad of Oxnard

ב"ה

CELEBRATE PASSOVER AT HOME AND/OR WITH CHABAD!

Passover is traditionally spent with family and friends, a celebration of the Divine gift of Jewish survival and community. With coronavirus still curtailing plans and social interactions, many are facing the prospect of celebrating Passover alone.

This year Chabad of Oxnard will once again be offering Seders To-Go Kits as well as Community Seders for those who can safely join in person. We are here to help!

What is Pesach?

The eight-day festival of Passover is celebrated in the early spring, from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan. Passover (Pesach) commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. Pesach is observed by avoiding leaven, and highlighted by the Seder meals that include four cups of wine, eating matzah and bitter herbs, and retelling the story of the Exodus
