It is indeed customary to have non-Jews at a seder, and we would welcome anyone who wished to attend.
Seder in Hebrew means 'order'. It refers in this case to the rituals involved in re-telling the story of our people's liberation from bondage in Egypt. We have, in modern times, also used the setting to re-tell more recent stories of liberation...such as the Warsaw Ghetto uprising as well as our responsibilities to other people's struggle for freedom.
So, looking forward to seeing you there!
Jenny, I'm looking into an e-version of a haggadah that we can easily reprint.
