Join Us for the Second Annual Communal Kever Avot

The High Holiday season is the time when we remember those who have had a significant impact upon us, especially those loved ones who are no longer with us. Join Federation’s Mishkan Miami: The Jewish Connection for Spiritual Support at a special communal memorial service on Sunday, October 9 at four local cemeteries. This tradition, called kever avot (“graves of our parents”), is an opportunity to raise, remember and celebrate the souls of those who have passed. Community rabbis, cantors and chaplains will be present to provide support and distribute prayer cards to be used when visiting the resting place of your loved ones.
