As the holiday of Passover is fast approaching (April 22, 2016), we here at Chabad.org’s Ask the Rabbi team would like to wish you a very happy and kosher Passover.
If you’ll be making a Seder of your own please consider inviting a local fellow Jew (a neighbor, a colleague or casual acquaintaince) to join you. If you are in need of a Seder (or know of someone who is in need of one) please use our handy Seder search to connect with a Chabad center near you, or contact us here at Ask the Rabbi for assistance.
In case you haven’t yet done so, we’d like to remind you to sell your chametz (leavened food) as, according to Jewish law, during Passover one may not own any chametz. You can easily do so online here.
For all your Passover needs please visit www.chabad.org/passover.
Thank you for your trust, and warm wishes for a kosher and happy Passover!

"Passover is here. Please take a minute to read." Chabad for Thursday, 14 Nissan, 5776 • April 21, 2016
By the Grace of G-d

We are one nation, each of us responsible for and inextricably bound with the other.
Especially during this Hakhel year, when we are enjoined to focus on our collective connection to G-d, we at Chabad.org are trying our hardest to nurture this unity among the more than 40 million unique visitors from around the world who turn to Chabad.org to find meaning, gain understanding and connect with community.
Members of our team all over the world are currently answering thousands of Passover questions, coordinating seder placement worldwide, and finishing new Passover articles and post-Passover features. Wherever there is a Jew on this planet earth, our dedicated staff is working to provide him or her with extraordinary living and learning tools, to help him and her join with the entire whole.
But we do not accomplish this alone!
It is only in unison, in partnership with you, that we are able to provide these resources to child and scholar, poor and wealthy, seeker, dabbler, and advanced questioner, every one of them, 24 hours a day.
The Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, taught our generation all about collective responsibility.
In time for Passover the Rebbe would urge that every Jew search for the "Fifth Son" – the Jew who does not even know about the holiday – and bring him and her to our seder table.
As we all sit down to our seders tomorrow evening, our job has only barely begun. As the Rebbe taught: we dare not rest until every Jewish child has a Jewish education!
Which is exactly what inspires our work here at Chabad.org – and precisely why your partnership is so integral to us: Together we can accomplish this important work!
Please help us help the countless thousands across the globe who we'll never meet but whose destiny is ours to share:

Sincerely,
