keveravot

The High Holiday season is a time to remember those who have had a significant impact upon us, especially loved ones who are no longer with us. Join Federation Mishkan Miami: The Jewish Connection for Spiritual Support at a special communal memorial service on Sunday, October 6 at four local cemeteries. This tradition, called kever avot (graves of our parents), is an opportunity to remember, reflect and celebrate those who have passed. Community rabbis, cantors and chaplains will be there for support and to distribute prayer cards to help make the gravesite visit meaningful.
