Riverdale Jewish Center Guide for Davening at Home 2020/5780

COMMUNITY VIRTUAL YIZKOR SERVICE Thursday May 28th at 6:30PM with Rabbi Dovid Zirkind

In preparing from the Yom Tov ahead, the absence of Yizkor for the souls of the departed is on the forefront of our minds. We will not be able to gather in person for Yizkor on the 2nd day of Shavuot, but we will be gathering virtually tomorrow Thursday, May 28 from 6:30- 7:00PM, to recite Yizkor as a community. Rabbi Zirkind will lead us in Yizkor with Divrei Torah and Tefillah similar to a traditional Yizkor service. Zoom link for the session as well as copies of the Yizkor book can be found on our homepage at www.rjconline.org. Please join us for this unique and meaningful community Tefillah.

As we daven for the souls of those who are no longer with us, please consider a donation to the RJC in their memory. Donations to our Shavuot Yizkor Appeal can be made to https://www.rjconline.org/form/shavouthyizkor. Thank you for your support.
