Message from the Rabbi

"You shall observe the [Feast of] Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your ranks out of the land of Egypt; you shall observe this day throughout the ages as an institution for all time." (Exodus 12:17)
Each of us has special days in our lives.  Some of those days are birthdays, days we met our partners, graduation days and the like. These days are important because they represent important milestones.  They become markers in our lives against which we are able to measure time.  We remember specific events as they relate to others.  For example, mom passed away just after we got married.  It is how we keep our lives in order.  Marking those moments is important and should never be glossed over.   Some of those days will be difficult and some will be happy, either way they are important. 

The selling of chametz is an important ritual that requires little effort.  It gets you in the mindset of preparing for Passover.  If you would like me to sell your Chametz for you, please simply reply to this email with your name and address.
