Pesach Seders at Dnepropetrovsk Community
13.04.2009
The Dnepropetrovsk community as always organized high class Pesach seders on the first night of the festival at many organizations, first of all at yeshivas, machon, homes for boys and girls.
This year we had 1800 guests, the most massive of the ceders took place at the Or Avner school; Bet Chana opened a Pesach camp for almost 90 people; Tzivos Hashem organized a suburban Pesach camp for boys.
The main seder for 520 people traditionally took place at the Golden Rose synagogue decorated with Pesach theme; Exodus motives were also present in waiters' costumes. Hilel and Business school activists greeted every guest at the entrance and guided them to their places thus creating a nice family atmosphere. During the seder they were by the tables to help Yan Sidelkovsky in synchronizing the Pesach seder process.
Soloists from the local opera made a nice musical background; Yakov Zvezdin sang the famous "Let my people go" at the opening, there were classical Pesach songs and remakes of favorite songs with Jewish texts.
Most delicious treats were cooked by Sergey Serdyuk, a chef from Mendy's kosher restaurant.
Mikhail Zhvanetsky invited by Mikhail and Sofia Pinchuk also visited the seder.
Chief Rabbi Shmuel Kaminezki said, "The seder was so wonderful because very many people put their hearts into it. I wish to thank Yan Sidenkovsky, our continuous host of Pesach seders, young people from Hilel and their leader Olga Tovkach, musicians and waiters and everyone who did their best. I would also say special thanks to our tireless organizer who combines the talents of manager with creativity – director Zelig Brez".
