of Congregation Beth Elohim supports congregation members in their times
of joy and sorrow. We arrange for meals for those who are ill as well as for
families with new babies. We run errands or shop for homebound members and visit
ill members at home or in the hospital. In the event of a death, Clergy and
Shiva Minyan lay-leaders are available to lead services for mourners in their
homes.
Our goal
for the Chesed group is to strengthen our community at Congregation Beth Elohim.
You can participate at your own comfort level, whether it's sending a card,
paying a Shiva call, visiting a sick member, or providing a meal. We are
grateful for your interest in these good works.
