Sale of Chametz

It is a mitzvah to not own any chametz (unleavened product) during Passover which begins at sundown this Friday April 22^nd and concludes 30^th at the conclusion of the Shabbat.  To that end, it has been the tradition for one to sell his/her chametz (unleavened product or products not kosher for Passover, or products that are Kosher for Passover but have been open before Passover) to a third party who is not Jewish.  This can be accomplished by an agent for the seller.

I assume that everyone receiving this email wishes for me to serve in that capacity, unless I receive an email to the contrary.  Those who wish to engage in a more formal process.  Please copy and then return the same to me.

I hereby authorize Rabbi Mark Melamut of the Roth Center for Jewish to serve as my agent to sell  all of my chametz to a third party. (Name of Person)
