The materials include information to read, videos to watch and activities to do together, and includes:
Menu – to help you find the things you want to explore
Welcome – How it works, how you can get the most out of it

This structure or menu means if you prefer going ‘off piste’, you can jump in and out, exploring the things which are most interesting and relevant to you.
This is not aimed at being an end-to-end expert Passover course, but rather a workshop which gives you some info and some ideas for you to explore more with your family.
When your payment has gone through, you will receive your email giving you a link to download the pdf downloads and a password to access all the online materials.
Your ticket is a ‘lifetime membership’ which means you will have access to everything both this year and all the new things which are created in the future.
A Jewish friend reviewed this material for me, especially looking out for things which were offensive to Jews, as I was concerned about replacement theology and suchlike. She gave me some things to change, and also said: “This is very creative, well-researched, and thoughtful! They are so rich with ideas, and are really inclusive and flexible.” Thank you LJ 🙂

Lucy –
A wonderful ‘one-stop-shop’ for Christian families wanting to explore this rich tradition that would have been so familiar to Jesus. Passover is becoming a standard part of our Holy Week activities, and this workshop gives us fodder to deepen the tradition and understanding every year. I like how you can pick and choose, do as little or as much as you want or have time for, and the whole thing is laid out very accessibly.
