| Shalom friends,
We reclined, we read, we remembered. We prayed, we celebrated, we perhaps became inspired.
Our annual connection to our history on Passover is a reminder of the continued link we all share to the fulfillment of our freedom as a people.
As we return to the symphony of our lives, may we carry with us a touch of the spark bestowed by Moses, Miriam, Aharon and our ancestors whose faith, commitment and determination led them home.
After all, Passover is more than just matza.
Don't Pass Over the opportunity to recruit a friend to become a VCI today!
