Chesed Committee

Taking care of those in need in our community is at the heart of what it means to be a caring Jewish community.  We are reconstituting our Chesed Committee to ensure that we live up to our ideals when fellow members are in a time of need.

The mitzvah of nichum aveilim, of comforting mourners, is considered in the Talmud to be one way for humans to fulfill the principle of “walking in God’s ways.”  One of the core roles of the Chesed Committee will be to make sure that at times of loss, mourners are provided with our communal support and nechama, comfort.

If you are interested in doing this important mitzvah as a member of the Sinai family, please contact the Temple Sinai office.
