Friend 2 Friend Holds Annual Community Seder

Friendship, music and a traditional seder meal were just some of the highlights of the 14th annual Friend 2 Friend Community Seder. The event was held in conjunction with the Jewish Community Centers’ Special Needs Services Department and had over 100 people in attendance.

Seder attendees were treated to guitar music to begin the seder. Friends were invited to singalong as Rabbi Jay Perlman of Temple Beth Shalom in Needham led the traditional seder. In addition to Dayenu, one participant led the crowd in a wonderful rendition of “Lo Yisa Goy.”

Friend 2 Friend Director Jan Klein, commented that this was by far the largest and most spirited crowd to attend the annual event, “I am always so impressed by the spirit and joy that our matches share as they celebrate this special holiday together. The comraderie that our Friends share was particularly special at this year’s seder.”

The event was generously funded by a consortium of Combined Jewish Philanthropies (CJP) member organizations.
