Each year, on the day before Pesach, firstborn males are required to fast to commemorate the Israelites being spared from death in the Plague of the Firstborn.  Firstborn males can exempt themselves from this fast by attending a Siyum (completion of a section of Torah study) and the Seudah (festive meal) that follows.  

Beth Jacob provides opportunities for firstborn males to participate in a Siyum and a Seudah following each Shacharis minyan on Erev Pesach (Friday, April 19, 2019.)
