Messiah in the Passover Demonstration April 14

BREWSTER - Messiah in the Passover, a vivid and exciting demonstration showing how Jesus fulfilled the ancient feast of Passover, will be held on Palm Sunday, April 14, at 9:30 a.m.

Messiah in the Passover will be conducted by Olivier Melnick.  Chosen People Ministries is an over 100-year-old mission that was founded in 1894 by Leopold Cohn, a Hungarian rabbi who came to believe that Jesus is the Messiah promised in the Hebrew Scriptures.  From humble beginnings in Brooklyn, New York, Chosen People Ministries has grown into a worldwide ministry to “the Jew first and to the Gentile.”

Messiah in the Passover begins with the traditional Passover Seder table –complete with all the articles of this important Jewish celebration.  The speaker will explain the symbolic meanings of the various items of the Passover feast and highlight their relationship to the Last Supper that Messiah celebrated with the disciples, giving special emphasis on the redemptive significance of the crucifixion.

Messiah in the Passover gives the Christian community insight into Jewish traditions so that the Jewish roots of Christianity can be better understood.  This program also helps the Jewish and Christian communities understand their common heritage.

This meeting is open to the public, and Calvary Baptist Church would like to invite the Christian as well as the Jewish community to attend.  The church is located at  115 N. 6th Street in Brewster.  For more information, please call (509) 689-2920.
