Passover Resources from the Tikkun Olam Cluster

The Tikkun Olam committees have created and collected resources that you can use at your Passover seder. These and many other resources are available on the Havurah website under Holidays/Pesach. We continue to add resources to this page so check what is posted for new content. Here is a description of resources that are currently available.

• Passover Recipe Collection
  As part of this year’s Passover celebration, the Tikkun Olam cluster put out a call for Passover recipes—and the Havurah community responded! We’ve collected old family favorites, new variations on an old theme, and other meaningful recipes for the season. Hopefully, these will enliven your seder meals for years to come. Download the recipe book here.
• Passover Songs
  Do you want to learn some new Passover music or have music resources you can use during your Seder? There are music resources available. Click here to hear many beautiful Passover songs from Cantor Barbara Slader's CD.
• Seder Readings
  We have collected readings with a social justice theme to use at your seder.
  • The Modern Plagues of Climate Change (T’ruah)
  • The Four Questions for the Passover Seder: Ukraine and Israel/Palestine (Evolve)
  • Why is this Seder Night Different from All Other Nights? (by Havurah member Harriet Cooke)
• Reflections
  • The Mitzvah of Matzoh (by Havurah member Harriet Cooke)
• For Kids
  Havurah member Adele Thompson created something just for kids: A Passover Message Only for Kids: What You Can Do This Passover. Show this resource to your kids (however you define that) and let them have fun with it.
• Hagaddot
  Reconstructing Judaism offers several Hagaddot, including A Night of Questions and the #Black Lives Matter Passover Supplement.
• Reconstructing Judaism offers many Passover ideas in this Virtual Passover Box.

The committees of the Tikkun Olam Cluster include the Sanctuary Committee, the Poverty and Homelessness Committee, the Climate Action Team, the Metropolitan Alliance for Common Good (MACG) Core Team, and the Racial Justice Committee. Please check the Tikkun Olam Cluster web page on our website for more information about each committee and whom to contact for more information. All the committees welcome and encourage participation from the community. There are many ways to be involved and contribute to our work for social justice.

We hope that you have a meaningful Passover this year. Chag Pesach Sameach!
