    Volunteering to help theChevraKadisha is considered on the greatest of allMitzvot .

    TheChevra is a volunteer group of men and women dedicated to serving the needs of the Jewish deceased, and to help the bereaved families in our community.

    Judaism has rich burial heritage that cares for the person who has just died, and for the mourners. 


    OUR TRADITION

    Our tradition understands a person is composed of both, body (guf) and soul (neshama ). After death, the holy vessel of the body is treated with the utmost care, dignity, and respect, and the soul is offered prayers and guidance as it withdraws from its vessel and returns to its source.
