[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd love to observe Passover. It's one of my favorites. I haven't ever celebrated Yom Kippur or Rosh Hashanah, but I always felt those were more observed in Temple? Most years, Jewish friends invite me to a Seder, so I feel like I've been celebrating it all along. As a kid I liked the story of Passover a lot too.

My church has always had a Seder and I know my inlaws evangelical church (in an area with zero Jews) has Seders too. I prefer attending one at a Jewish friend's home though. I think the ritual and story is really interesting, I like how everyone participates in reading and love all the wine! Not Manischewitz, they can give that to the kids. There really isn't another holiday that's similar. [/quote]

Yom Kippur is observed (not celebrated) in Temple. Then some people do break fast at home; others do it at temple.

Rosh Hashanah is celebrated in Temple and at home.

Passover is mostly at home, at least when I was growing up.

Can you tell me more about what happens at a Church Seder? Do they tell the story of the liberation of Jews from slavery in Egypt, or is it a Seder centered around Jesus’s Last Supper? [/quote]

When I was growing up, we did them as a telling of the story of the liberation of Jews from Egypt, explaining the symbolism of the various foods, etc.  [/quote]
