Registration for WHC’s Community & 2239 Passover Seder is now closed, and we are no longer able to add any new names to our waitlist.  Thank you for understanding, and Happy Passover!

If you’re interested in being in community for the holiday, consider attending our Freedom Seder on Tuesday, April 7, 6:00 pm. Young Professionals are also invited to an Interfaith Seder on Sunday, April 19, 5:30 pm.

Doors open at 5:30 pm, the Seder will begin promptly at 6:00 pm.

Gather with friends, neighbors, and loved ones to celebrate our annual Community Passover Seder, this year inspired by the theme Once We Were Strangers. The Passover story has always been one of liberation and resilience — but it is also a story about what it means to be an outsider, to find belonging, and to extend welcome to others. This year, we invite you to explore that timeless message together.

Whether you are joining us for the first time or have celebrated Passover for decades, you belong at this table. Through storytelling, song, and the symbolic foods of the Seder plate, we’ll honor the journey from bondage to freedom — and reflect on what it means, in our own time, to see ourselves in the face of the stranger. Dinner will be provided, featuring traditional favorites like matzah ball soup, charoset, and a festive meal. Families and children are encouraged to attend, and this kid-friendly program will make the evening engaging for all ages. Whether you’re seeking spiritual reflection, cultural connection, or simply a warm meal shared in good company, this Seder is for you.

Once we were strangers. Now we welcome you home.

Chag Pesach Sameach — Happy Passover!
