Does the Church Approve of Christian Seders Held at Parishes?

Question:

Does the Church approve of Christian Seders held at parishes?

Answer:

Although the Church has not expressly forbidden Christian Seders, it is also not an event of which the Church has approved for public celebration. Unapproved private devotions, no matter their nature, should not be publicly celebrated on Church property because the mistaken impression is given that there is Church approval where such approval does not yet exist.
