Zoom Seder
Join HaNefesh for on online Second Night Seder. You get to wear what you want to wear and eat what you want to eat. Don't worry, they will have suggestions.
What do they do during an online seder?
You can invite all your family and friends from around the country and world! Just remind them that we start at 6pm Pacific Time.
The Haggadah will be on screen for you to follow along with. You can chat with one another during the seder. There will be a virtual afikomen hunt - searching for the afikomen isn't just for kids. They will create breakout rooms if you want to join in small groups during dinner or you can stay in the main room with them. Just send them a message as to who you want in your room.
Best part of all, IT'S FREE!
(donations to support HaNefesh are always greatly appreciated)
