Burn Your Chometz before Passover. Community Event

The search for leaven. Bedikas Chometz, occurs Thursday, April 21, 2005 after nightfall. This is the "feather and spoon" activity that all children love!

This year, on Friday morning, April 22, from 7 AM - 8 AM, Congregation Ohav Sholom (with approval from the Merrick Fire Department) will host Biyur Chometz, the burning of the remaining leaven found during the previous night's search. Although it is early in the morning, it is a great opportunity for our children to participate.

The fire dept will be present to ensure safety and participate in our ritual. I think our children will have a great time. It is early so that we can do it before work and school.

Bring your chometz to be burned.
