Passover HerTorah: The Burdens We Carry on the Journey to Redemption
What are we carrying with us into the Seder this year?
With R’ Aliza Sperling, R’ Anne Gordon, Rabbi Tamara Cohen, R’ Chani Bloom, and R’ Dalia Davis
Each year, the Passover Haggadah asks us to imagine “as if you, too, had left Egypt.”
This Pesach, it feels like so many of us are carrying different burdens as we come to sit down at the Seder table.
When you imagine yourself leaving your figurative “Egypt”… what does your path to redemption look like? Are you in the midst of the binds of slavery and tasting the bitterness of the maror? Or are you joyous and hopeful and tasting the sweetness of freedom?
Join us to explore the wisdom we can glean from the Passover Haggadah and our own unique stories and journeys.
Join us. We love doing holidays together.
As always, learners of all backgrounds are most welcome.

HerTorah gathers together a diverse community of Jewish women to connect over our shared heritage, explore our collective wisdom, and elevate our communal experience in learning with and from one another.
HerTorah is made possible in part by support of the Aviv Foundation and The Covenant Foundation and inspired by each one of us.
This gathering is made possible by these wonderful sponsors:

SVIVAH is dependent on the generosity of those who choose to invest in a powerful community of women. As always, cost should never be a barrier to anything SVIVAH, but if you can, please help us show respect to our speakers/facilitators for their time and expertise.
