Kiddush
On both Friday and Shabbat, in keeping with our existing practice, we will be having a potluck kiddush.
Potluck Kiddush on the Last Days of Pesach On the last days of Pesach, in keeping with our existing practice, we will be having a potluck kiddush. Please refer to the excerpt from the Netivot Shalom kashrut policy found below if you are intending to bring food for the kiddush. This kiddush has always been a great way to use food that will be left over after Pesach and we encourage you to participate.
Pesach Kiddush Policy: No leftover Matza. Store bought and in original sealed packages. Only mainstream well-accepted hashgahot such as OU, OK, Kof-K, Star- K, CRC, and COR, or from any RCBC store, with the following exception. No products containing kitniyot, such as soy, corn, sesame, peanuts, chickpeas, etc (including snacks such as halva) etc. -- please read labels carefully and do not bring them since they will not be served.
