The Passover Seder
April 8, 2009
On Wednesday, April 8, St. Mark's continued the annual tradition of celebrating the Passover Seder. Members and guests followed the Haggadah, eating the foods and and following the required ritual.
Among the guests were Pastors Lisa & Matthew Schuster, of Trinity Lutheran, McClure and Messiah Lutheran, Troxelville. They brought a group of catechetical students who participated in the Seder for the first time.
Although it is a Jewish festival, for Christians, Passover is of special interest since it provides the historical background for the great Christian festival of Easter. The Last Supper is linked with the Passover Seder, and such concepts as the Lamb of God and the wine and bread of Communion originated in the Passover ritual.
Here are some sights from the 2009 meal.
