Celebrating the Passover

The Jewish passover celebration is not only intended as a way of remembering the night the angel passed over all the homes marked with the blood of the sacrifice, saving every firstborn son, but also to look forward to the coming Messiah. Christians believe Jesus is that Messiah, and many Christian families have begun to celebrate that event with a traditional Seder, the special meal at the heart of the Passover season.
The folks over at EchotheStory.com have developed a special Haggadah, or Seder booklet, to guide Christian groups through all the parts of a Seder meal to help in hosting a Seder in your home or with a small group. You can download the booklet for free or purchase it in packs of 6.
