Feast of Moshiach


The last day of Pesach is totally enveloped by the aura of Moshiach and redemption.

Ever since the saintly Baal Shem Tov instituted this mystical tradition several hundred years ago, Jews around the world gather during the final moments of the Pesach festival to celebrate and affirm their unwavering faith in the promise of a perfect world, the era of REDEMPTION.
Traditionally, this occasion is celebrated with “another” four cups of wine, Matzah - “the food of faith”, soul stirring songs of faith & yearning and inspirational stories & insights.

Join together with our brethren from all four corners of the universe in an expression of faith, which will itself hasten our crossing over the threshold of life as we know it, into the reality of Moshiach.

Sunday, April 27 7:15 PM at the JRC of Iowa 943 Cummins Parkway.
