Our Description

Come to the Table is for anyone seeking to integrate the traditions of Judaism and Christianity. Interfaith families will find it an especially useful companion during Passover and Holy Week.

Adopted by Roman Catholic parishes throughout

North America for parish-based seder celebrations.

Used by youth and adult formation ministers

throughout the year

to teach about the Holy Eucharist.

"A better knowledge of the Jewish people's faith and religious life as professed and lived even now can help our better understanding of certain aspects of Christian liturgy."

Catechism of the Catholic Church 1096
