Seder dinner

Tuesday night my UMW Circle (Susannah) met and the hostess, Teresa, presented a Seder dinner. It is traditionally thought a Jewish dinner but is actually a Christian dinner as well; it should be practiced more often IMO. Here's some info about a Seder dinner and its meaning that I found via website: http://www.christianseder.com/ You can also find the items you need for the dinner and their meanings. It's a very simple thing to do that I plan on trying next year with the family.

"Seder is the traditional Passover Week Dinner celebrated by the Hebrews since the Exodus. It is the Hebrew Thanksgiving, giving thanks to God for deliverance and redemption.
Seder is also called the Passover Dinner, commemorating the protection of God as the Angel of Death passed over every family protected by the Blood of the Paschal Lamb.
Seder is Bible Study. It is in this family setting that Jewish children were first introduced to the Book of Exodus as the adults gained further insight. We refer to this kind of instruction as multimedia, as all five senses are involved to make this study an unforgettable event.
Seder is that famous Dinner called The Last Supper, hosted by Jesus for His disciples. It is probable, based on The Gospels, to assume that Jesus celebrated every Seder of His life in Jerusalem. Seder, as the setting for Jesus' Last Supper, was the event Jesus choose to announce The New Covenant. And it was at this Seder that Jesus asked all of us to do this in remembrance of Him. Many of us have done part of the Seder at our various Communion Services, but the entire ceremony will bring us a profound sense of meaning."
