The Last Supper and the Passover Seder

Our Easter podcast is being released on Holy Thursday.  As Catholics, Holy Thursday celebrations around the world focus on the night Jesus celebrated the Passover Seder with His disciples, the Last Supper.  So, this month we focus on the Jewish roots of this sacred celebration with Sister Nancy Stiles, Holy Union Associate, Kathi Jeffra, and a good friend of Holy Union, Saralee Salk, a Jewish woman steeped in her faith and deeply knowledgeable on the traditions, symbolism, and rituals of Passover and the Seder meal.  Our discussion reminds us of the significant overlap between Catholic and Jewish ritual, prayer, and tradition.  It serves to unite us as a faith family who share significantly our, religious practice and spirituality.
