George Matthew Jr., carillonneur for Middlebury College and Norwich University, plays  “St. Francis’ Trial” by Belgian composer Jo Coenen on the Mead Chapel carillon. The work tells the story of the wonderful encounter between Saint Francis of Assisi and the Sultan Malek al Kamil in 1219, in stark contrast to the violence of the Fifth Crusade. This piece will be played on carillons throughout Belgium and Netherlands on this day to reflect the Ecumenical movement in Europe. An interfaith event following Muslim Jumma prayers at 1:00 PM.

You are warmly invited to celebrate the Festival of Spring, Matzah and Freedom! We will hold the first seder together at Atwater Dining Hall beginning at 6:00 pm on Wednesday, April 8th. To ensure that we have enough food, Please RSVP by April 1 at go/passoverseder.

Our Passover Seder is generously supported by an endowment from Catherine Talerman P’16 and Henri Talerman P’16 in honor of Middlebury College Rabbi Emeritus Ira Schiffer
