They demonstrate how one can be deeply spiritual and also deeply committed to healing and transforming the world (tikkun olam). This Seder is not just for Jews\, but for everyone who wishes to recommit to the struggles for liberation and participate in a Jewish ritual that is joyous\, politically progressive\, environmentally conscious\, and spiritually meaningful. \nOur Beyt Tikkun community Liberation Seder brings in creative elements including exercises\, small group discussions\, guided visualizations\, song\, and dance.

We will share more information about the altars closer to the event. All ages are welcome! \nWe will be both in person and on Zoom so those of you who cannot join us in person can still participate in a meaningful way.
