Messiah in the Passover Demonstration Wednesday, April 13

Celebrate the Resurrection!

MESSIAH IN THE PASSOVER, a vivid and exciting demonstration showing how Jesus fulfilled the ancient feast of Passover.

MESSIAH IN THE PASSOVER will be conducted by Roy Schwartz of Chosen People Ministries. Chosen People Ministries is an over one hundred-year-old mission that was founded in 1894 by Leopold Cohn, a Hungarian rabbi who came to believe that Jesus is the Messiah promised by the Hebrew Scriptures. From humble beginnings in Brooklyn, New York, Chosen People Ministries has grown into a worldwide ministry to “the Jew first and to the Gentile.”

7600 W. Lake St., River Forest 801 Elgin Ave., Forest Park St. Luke and St. Bernardine Parish ● www.stlstbparish.org ● 708-771-8250

This service is open to the public, and First United Methodist Church of Oak Park would like to invite the Christian as well as the Jewish community to attend. For more information please call 708-383-4983.

A love offering will be received.

MESSIAH IN THE PASSOVER begins with the traditional Passover Seder table – complete with all the articles of this important Jewish celebration. The speaker will explain the symbolic meanings of the various items of the Passover feast and highlight their relationship to the Last Supper that Messiah celebrated with the disciples, giving special emphasis on the redemptive significance of the crucifixion.

MESSIAH IN THE PASSOVER gives the Christian community insight into Jewish traditions so that the Jewish roots of Christianity can be better understood.

This program also helps the Jewish and Christian communities understand their common heritage.
