Rosh Chodesh
March 18, 7:00 p.m.
When a Jew dies, a burial group known as the
chevrah kadisha
(holy society) prepares the body for interment. Our tradition views the members of a
chevrah kadisha
to be praiseworthy especially since so many are reluctant to participate in this mitzvah. A member of San Diego's
chevrah kadisha,
Doris Jaffe, will join us to offer insight and answer your questions. Click here for details and to RSVP.
