New JGrads leadership prepares to host their first seder

JGrads St. Louis, Chabad on Campus’s effort to recognize the needs of the hundreds of Jewish graduate students and their peers in St. Louis, is gearing up for its Passover seder.

“The seder is targeted at Jewish graduate students and their peers,” said Chana Oster. “We will be happy to accommodate anyone to ensure they can experience Passover.”

In December, Oster and her husband Rabbi Yankel Oster were appointed as new Shluchim to serve as directors of the JGrads programs.

“We’ll keep the seder short and enjoyable while providing all of the authentic meaning Passover has to provide. The menu and company should be incredible as well,” said Oster. “We are new to St. Louis but this seder should be the first of many.

No prior Hebrew knowledge or seder experience is required! The seder is anticipated to last approximately 2.5 hours, with optional post-seder singing and discussions stretching into the night. Fine wines, a delectable holiday feast, and crisp handcrafted matzot are on the menu.
