Spiritual and End-of-Life Care Initiative

Now entering its seventh year, Rodeph Sholom’s initiative for end-of-life care has a presence on our website and a resource library located on the fourth floor of the synagogue. The goal of this initiative, which is funded by UJA-Federation of New York and the Jewish Board of Family and Children’s Services, is to effect a broad cultural change in the community by openly addressing and actively promoting dialogue about issues related to death, dying and the quality of end-of-life.

A continuum of supportive services is offered, which anticipates and addresses the needs of individuals and families concerned with end-of-life care including: adult ed classes, counseling groups, messages from the bimah, bikkur cholim, a resource library and other responses that evolve as we journey together.

Mitzvah Weekend

Each year, the end of October brings Mitzvah Weekend, during which we highlight our congregational commitment to social action. Kicked off with a special Shabbat service and speaker, the weekend features innovative programs, and culminates on Mitzvah Day. On Mitzvah Day, the congregation comes together in an action-packed day dedicated to the community. Families and individuals participate in a variety of projects including preparing food for the homeless, cleaning the park, contributing clothes, books and toys, visiting the elderly, making baby showers, playing Bingo with seniors and creating art projects.

The John Kowal/Reverend Preston Washington Freedom Seder

Rodeph Sholom has an ongoing relationship with Harlem’s Memorial Baptist Church. This has resulted in exchanges of Clergy and children’s choirs, and a highly successful annual Freedom Seder, now named in memory of two pillars of our respective communities, John Kowal and Reverend Preston Washington. Both communities come together to celebrate their respective liberation from bondage.
