Telling Our Story

 

Shmuel Junger was recently invited by Christian for Israel International to share the story of Passover. He explores the meaning behind the three main components of the Seder: the sacrifice, the unleavened bread and the bitter herbs.

The Seder tells the story of the Jewish people’s past but also points to their future. Though they remember the bitterness of slavery in Egypt they look forward to a rebuilt Israel with the Seder’s final statement of “Next Year in Jerusalem!”

There is still time to support families in Israel this Passover season! Each year you, our CFOIC  friends, have been instrumental in supporting the Samaria Family Assistance Program Passover Campaign and the Heart of Benjamin Passover Camps. This year, we need your continued help more than ever before!
