Gemilut Hasadim/Caring Community

Our Gemilut Hasadim group ensures that no one is left alone in a time of need.

Volunteers call fellow congregants to remind them of an upcoming yartzeit (the anniversary of a loved one’s death); call and visit sick members to cheer them up and to find out how they are doing; arrange holiday meals for members without a place for Rosh Ha-Shanah or Passover; arrange a Shiva minyan to help comfort mourners; or organize meals for new parents or those who are sick.

Please contact Rabbi Boris for this important mitzvah at rabbiboris@dorshei-emet.org or (514) 486-9400.

If you are in need of care from the community, whether you are ill, in mourning, in need of holiday meals, or have just had a baby, please contact the office. We are glad to help.

If you would like to be added to our Refuah Shleimah list, for the congregation to include you in our prayers for healing, please send an email to programdirector@dorshei-emet.org with your Hebrew name, and whether you would like your English name included as well to let people know you are in need of healing.
