The “Fast of the First Born” is a fast day that falls on the day before Passover (or Friday if Passover begins Saturday night). The fast is superseded by the observance (consumption) of a seudat mitzvah, an obligatory meal for a festive occasion. One festive event that prompts a seudat mitzvah is a siyyum, a completion of a section of Torah study, often of a book or a chapter of a Rabbinic text. Please join us for morning services at 8:00 am followed by a siyyum, and a festive (last chance before Pesach) doughnut and coffee breakfast.

Following breakfast, we will burn our hametz in the parking lot behind the Temple. at approx. 8:30 a.m.
