It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the New York Region’s annual Diplomatic Model Seder on Thursday evening, March 25, 2010, from 6:00 to 9:30 p.m. at Congregation B’nai Jeshurun, located at 257 West 88th Street. We are delighted to announce that the Long Island and Westchester Regions, as well as members of Access will be collaborating with the New York Region for this year’s Diplomatic Seder.


The evening consists of:

  • Welcome reception
  • Festive meal held in the historic sanctuary.  Catering by Foremost (dietary rules strictly observed).
  • Model Seder led by B’nai Jeshrun’s Rabbi Rolando Matalon, using special Haggadot which you can take home
  • Beautiful music by B'nai Jeshurun's Cantor Ari Priven

Costs have been held to $150 per person, but as the diplomats attend at no charge, we hope that you will consider underwriting the cost of at least one diplomat or possibly taking one of the sponsorship packages.  Click here to purchase tickets and/or sponsorship.


The Model Seder for Diplomats is a cornerstone of the diplomatic outreach efforts of the New York State regional offices. It offers a unique chance for our lay leadership to interact with diplomats in a less formal setting.  It also provides an invaluable opportunity for us to share an important evening of Jewish ritual and culture with the diplomats, as well as an understanding of the values that infuse our culture. 


We look forward to seeing you there!
