The Yizkor prayers are said in the Synagogue on Yom Kippur, and on the last day of each of the Festivals of Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot. In these prayers we ask G‑d to 'remember' the souls of family and friends who have passed on. Attending a Yizkor service, and/or giving Tzedakah in advance of Yizkor, provides us with a special opportunity to connect with our loved ones.
Memory is especially powerful when the past becomes an inspiration. When we remember them in our physical life, their life is not just a passive memory, rather they become an active and eternal source of inspiration to us. For those who have passed on, they merit the continuous impact in both the physical world and the spiritual world-to-come from our good deeds.
For this reason, part of the Yizkor service includes a pledge to Tzedakah, charity, a Mitzvah done on behalf of the deceased's soul.
We can ensure that your loved ones are indeed remembered at these 4 times. By inscribing your loved ones in the Yizkor Book, we will announce their name as a part of the Keil Malei prayer at each of the four Yizkor services throughout the coming Jewish year of 5785 (2024-25).

All names must be submitted by Tuesday, October 8.
