Mourning

We are rarely, if ever, truly prepared for the death of someone close to us, even in the cases of a long illness. A death in the family or among close friends can be a time of distress, when our feelings are often confused and we are unsure what to do, how to behave, and what arrangements need to be made.

We are here to help guide and support you as you walk the path of grief, organise the funeral and honour your loved one within the traditions of Judaism.

To arrange a funeral or speak with a member of our clergy please call the synagogue and we will assist you.

If you have questions about the traditions for mourning we have prepared a booklet to assist you. You can download a copy by clicking on the button below or you may wish to call the synagogue and speak with one of our clergy directly.  Also, please ask about the bereavement group offered by the Synagogue.
