Hospital and Senior Visitations
Know someone who needs a visit? We can cheer them up!
Many of us have friends or family who are either in hospital or a senior home. We know that these individuals could always do with a visit, but unfortunately, we don’t always have the time to go, and when we do it’s hardly enough.
Here’s where Chabad could help.
We will bring cheer and happiness to those who need it most by paying a visit or arranging for a visit to be made on your behalf.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us today at 609-882-4330 or [email protected].
Do you need help with checking or placing a Mezuzah?
We are happy to offer assistance and guidance related to all aspects of Mezuzot and Tefillin.
Mezuzot should be checked twice every seven years to see if they have been affected by adverse weather conditions, or by folding (which can cause cracks in the letters), or if any other defect has occurred. It is preferable to check Mezuzot which are on the outside of a building more often, due to their vulnerability to the elements.
To have your Mezuzot or Tefillin checked or for information call 609-882-4330 or email [email protected].
Bereavement Services
King Solomon said, "There is a time for all under the heavens - a time to love, a time to journey, a time to plant, a time to reap, a time to rejoice and a time to mourn."
In a most loving and caring way and with the greatest sensitivity Rabbi Goldenberg will make it his business to offer all the comfort, guidance and bereavement support needed. In addition he will be glad to offer his assistance in preparation, officiating at the funeral, making Shiva services, arranging for the kaddish to be recited, etc.
For assistance or for more information please call: 609-882-4330.
