Engaging Those in Need

Chesed is Hebrew for loving-kindness. The Beth Shalom Chesed Committee performs activities to recognize and help congregants and their families during a time of need that supplement the pastoral support provided by our clergy. Currently, our focus is bereavement, and as our committee expands, we will work on other areas. If you are interested in joining this work, please contact Rabbi Kaplan.

We encourage family members and friends to notify the synagogue ritual office to initiate these visits and acts of chesed. Please contact the Ritual Coordinator.

Your generous donations to the Beth Shalom Chesed Committee Fund help to make it possible.
