Passover

Let All Who Are Hungry Come and Eat

Passover Hunger Relief
Financial donations are accepted for the hunger relief drive here.

Donate to Vickery Meadow Food Pantry
We will be collecting items through April 24 to give to the Vickery Meadow Food Pantry. You may drop off your items at Temple or order online from this Amazon wishlist.

Afghan Refugee Needs
This Passover season, we are also looking for people to volunteer for resettlement of Afghan refugee families. Fill out this form to get involved in Temple's Afghan resettlement efforts.

Mental Health Resources
On Passover, we remember our freedom from the physical bondage of Egypt, but without acknowledging the mental bondage many of us are still trapped in we will never truly be free. These resources from The Blue Dove Foundation will allow you to use the themes of Passover to explore your own Exodus.
