Siyyum Following Fast of the Firstborn

Since the firstborn of the Egyptians died so that our ancestors could get free from Egypt, there is a custom that Jewish first-born children
fast as a sign gratitude that we weren’t killed. The fast of the firstborn is marked starting at sunrise on the day of the seder and continues
until sundown. However, if you’re a firstborn you can be exempted from the requirement to fast by attending a seudat mitzvah, a “mitzvah
meal.” We will hold a siyyum, the completion of a tractate of learning, on that morning (Friday, April 15) following our streamed morning
minyan. Join us for a last pre-Passover bagel and l’hayim before Passover whether you’re fasting or not.
