Wednesday is the 3rd annual Feminist Seder

On Wednesday, March 24, Heather Mendel hosts the third annual Feminist Seder via Zoom at 7 p.m.

Mendel’s invitation describes the event as a “mystical Haggadah … retelling of the story of the

Exodus as a kabbalistic journey of discovery ... (this retelling) is inclusive and welcomes the feminine voice of the mystical storyteller — hence a feminist seder rather than a women’s seder.”

Men are also welcome to attend.
