Yahrzeit List

Each week, during Shabbat morning services, we read the names of the departed whose yahrzeits are observed that Shabbat and in the coming week. Names are grouped by the week in which they are read.

It is traditional to make a donation in the name of a departed family member. If you wish to donate, please mail a check with 'yahrzeit' and the name of your loved one written in the memo line to 201 Central St Somerville, MA 02145, or donate online, either through the ShulCloud payment processing gateway or through Paypal. Please consider checking the box to offset processing fees.
