St. Andrew marked Maundy Thursday with a Seder meal as part of commemorating Holy Week this year.
The Seder meal is a way to celebrate and remember the Passover night, when God rescued the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt.
Moses said, “You shall observe this rite as a perpetual ordinance for you and your children. When you come to the land that the Lord will give you, as he has promised, you shall keep this observance. And when your children ask you, “What do you mean by this observance?” you shall say, “It is the passover sacrifice to the Lord, for he passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt, when he struck down the Egyptians but spared our houses.” And the people bowed and worshiped. -Exodus 12:24-37
A big thank you to Karen Stine for all of the preparations, the Pardee family and Brian Hoffmeier for leading the meal, and all those who helped clean up.
