HEA: Sorrows and Hardships

Sorrows, Hardships, & Illness

Whether it be the loss of a loved one, financial or emotional troubles, we are here to help you with every aspect of your Jewish life.

The HEA Hesed Society (Caring Committee)
Hesed means "loving-kindness." Performing acts of hesed is one of the foundations of Jewish life. We care about our fellow congregants.

The Hesed Program helps members in need through acts of loving- kindness. Assistance for the sick and homebound, elderly, bereaved, and new parents is provided by cooking and delivering meals. All members are warmly encouraged to take part with whatever time commitment they can afford and fulfill the mitzvah of caring for one's neighbors.

Join our Hesed committee and give a huge gift to your fellow congregants. To become involved, please contact Joyce Perlmutter at the synagogue office. Also let her know about members of the congregation who are ill, have recently had a new baby, or have lost a loved one. The committee will be happy to offer assistance.
