up in terms of the amount of people celebrating it

“It’s about the story of where you come from and where you ’ re going If you want to know where you ’ re going, you need to know where you ’ re coming from ”

Baitelman said the best way to honour the matzah tradition is to eat the flatbread “that was produced in the same way it was made back then by hand ”

It’s said that there’s no such thing as a free lunch

But a very special customer in Richmond got just that recently when she turned up at the St Alban’s Outreach Team’s free Friday Lunch program program, ” Baitelman told the Richmond News of the matzah distribution

“The interaction is key Some people are active in the community, some not as much So someone showing up at the door with a package is heart-warming and is usually very much appreciated ”

Baitelman said they will keep on visiting homes in the Jewish community until “ we have distributed every last box ”

“It’s usually right up to a day or two before Passover It’s one of the most important celebrations and likely high

Baitelman explained that the thinking behind the consumption of unleavened bread and the banning of eating or owning any leavened products, such as bread or pasta connects to the rise of arrogance and self-importance

While the promotion of unleavened products promotes a “healthy sense of humility,” said Baitelman

The eight-day festival of Passover is celebrated this year from sundown on Wednesday, April 5 until after nightfall on Thursday, April 14

The woman was the 10,000th customer at the program, which was launched on Aug 5, 2016 by church volunteers

Dianne Woodhouse, one of the founders of the outreach program, said the recipient was visiting the lunch program for the first time and spoke no English

The Friday Lunch was originally a sit-down affair, but with the advent of COVID-19, it moved to a takeout model

The recipient of the 10,000th lunch also received a $25 gift certificate to McDonald’s Woodhouse said they “ very grateful to the City of Richmond who awarded us a $36,000 grant to continue with all the outreach programs in giving back to the community ”
