Chag Pesach Sameach! Happy Passover!

South Florida Shomrim wishes you and your family a joyous, meaningful holiday filled with freedom, family, and tradition. May your Seder be memorable and may the coming season bring peace, love, good health, and happiness. Passover this year begins at sundown on Wednesday, April 1, 2026, and ends at sundown on Thursday, April 9, 2026. If you aren’t able to be in person, we hope you find more creative ways to hold seders remotely. However you commemorate the holiday, know that you always have a community with South Florida Shomrim, and we remain deeply connected wherever we may be. You have a home with South Florida Shomrim, and that's something to celebrate.

The Passover festival is known as Pesach in Hebrew and commemorates G-d liberating Jews from slavery in ancient Egypt and Moses leading them to their freedom. The Torah commands people observe Passover for seven days. One of the most important Passover traditions is to get rid of all leavened products known as Chametz from one’s household and abstain from eating these types of products for the duration Passover to reflect on the story that, when being freed from slavery, the Israelites fled so quickly that their bread could not rise and that is why the flatbread known as ‘Matzo’ is eaten during the Passover holiday.

Funny story all…The South Florida Shomrim Society is participating in the 2025 South Florida PBA Pig Roast Challenge. Come help the Shalom Smokehouse Team raise some funds for the PBA Love Fund and help us win the fundraising category at the same time. Since we are smoking brisket, because we have no clue how to roast a pig, maybe we can win the fundraising category instead. Use this link to donate to the PBA Love Fund, and it gets credited to our fundraising goal while benefiting the Love fund at the same time.
Click below to learn all about the Love Fund and what your donation goes toward, but make sure to use our link to donate via the QR Code or the 2nd link below so we get credited for your donation.
Thank you all and Eat More Beef!

Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the tragic loss of one of our own, Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office Deputy Devin Jaramillo, who was shot and killed in the line of duty on Friday November 7, 2025.

It takes a truly special person to wear this uniform, someone willing to risk everything for people they have never met, guided only by a sense of duty, compassion, and love for their community. Deputy Jaramillo represented the very best of who we are: brave, selfless, and committed to protecting others, no matter the cost.

Together, we gather to honor Devin, but also his surviving family through a difficult time.

This is an approved presale t-shirt fundraiser in efforts to raise money for the surviving family. All proceeds will be donated to Devin Jaramillo’s Family via our organization
