Shoshannah's Chantry Activity

[CourtCat]

For Passover, there was a traditional, Kosher Seder for anyone who was interested (even if it was only Shoshannah). Word went out via phone calls to the people for whom she has numbers with a "invite everyone" clause. The whole thing went like this (Cliff Notes version, but complete with appropriate recitations in both Hebrew and English) and took several hours, bordering on vigil length:

Kadeish (blessings and the first cup of wine)
Ur'chatz (wash hands)
Karpas (appetizer)
Yachatz (breaking of the middle matzah)
Magid (relating the Exodus)

• Mah Nishtanah (The Four Questions)
  
• The Four Sons
  
• "Go and learn"
  

Rohtzah (ritual washing of hands)
Motzi (blessings over the Matzah)
Matzah
Maror (bitter herbs)
Koreich (sandwich)
Shulchan Orech (the meal)
Tzafun (eating of the afikoman)
Bareich (Grace after Meals)

• Kos Shlishi (the Third Cup of Wine)
  
• Kos shel Eliyahu ha-Navi (cup of Elijah the Prophet)
  

Hallel (songs of praise)
Nirtzah

Because this is an interfaith Seder performed by a woman (who says to hell with any god, most of the time, but then keeps to ritualistic traditions), there are certain changes - an orange on the Seder plate, a cup of water next to Elijah's cup, and stories/discussion of peace, freedom, and tolerance at various points during the ritual.

I have a partially written moodpost about this, but! It's long and involved and was already started before Pesach, so who knows when I'll get it done. Just so y'all know your character would have been invited and may have been present. If you're interested in knowing more (assuming you don't know more than I do already, which is a silly thing to do), a google search will get you tons of information.
