Here is a list of resources, events and services in honor of the Jewish observance.
It's almost time to break out the matzo. Passover arrives on March 25 this year, when Jews across the world will come together to retell the Exodus story over four cups of wine (or grape juice for those who can't indulge), and of course, a large, festive feast. Passover Traditions As the story goes, during their flight from slavery, the Jews did not have enough time for their dough to rise, resulting in a flaky cracker that is eaten instead of bread for a full week during Passover.

A line of anxious customers were there as Trader Joe's South Hills opened its doors for the very first time Friday morning, Nov. 4. Inside, each aisle was packed with people.

She was the first customer to step foot into the store. "I have been pushing for this store to come to the South Hills for so long, I never thought it would happen." Trader Joe's South Hills, located at 1630 …
