Passover

“In honor of the Lord your God, celebrate the Passover each year in the early spring, in the month of Abib, for that was the month in which the Lord your God brought you out of Egypt by night.
Your Passover sacrifice may be from either the flock or the herd, and it must be sacrificed to the Lord your God at the designated place of worship—the place he chooses for his name to be honored. 
 Eat it with bread made without yeast. For seven days the bread you eat must be made without yeast, as when you escaped from Egypt in such a hurry. Eat this bread—the bread of suffering—so that as long as you live you will remember the day you departed from Egypt." 

~Deuteronomy 16:1-3

" Christ, our Passover Lamb, has been sacrificed for us."

"So let us celebrate the festival, not with the old bread of wickedness and evil, but with the new bread of sincerity and truth."

~ I Corinthians 5:7b,8

Passover begins tonight at sundown.
