Caring Committee Mission Statement

The purpose of Beth Mordecai’s Caring Committee is to reach out to members of the Beth Mordecai community and the extended Jewish community in times of need. We believe that this is what it means to be part of a caring Jewish congregation and community. We want to offer friendship, comfort and companionship especially at times when it is most needed. We want people to know we are a family in our Jewish Home for the Soul.

Ways in which we can help:

• We will do our best to provide rides to the synagogue when needed.
• We will help to organize a minyan when a family is sitting shiva.
• We will pick up a few items at the grocery store, or pick up a prescription for people who are homebound.
• We will make phone calls to people we are unable to visit.
• We will try to arrange visits to people who are hospitalized, in a nursing home or a rehab facility especially during Jewish holidays.
• We will try and make brief visits to people who are homebound so we can chat and possibly share a cup of tea or coffee. We are not professional  healthcare aids or medical professionals and as such cannot provide care in a professional manner, but we do want to offer our friendship and compassion when it is most needed.

How you can help us accomplish our mission:

We welcome any members of our congregation who feel that they would like to join us and help us to reach out to others in our community when needed. Please don`t hesitate to call us if you think we can be of assistance.
