SUMMARY:Passover: Yizkor Memorial Prayers
DESCRIPTION:IN-PERSON & ZOOM: \nPassover Yizkor Memorial Prayers at The Boston Synagogue\nPassover Yizkor Memorial Prayers will be led by Tim Motz ; Join us for holiday  Yizkor Memorial services with Minchah / Maariv Holiday Passover Services\nthe evening of Wednesday April 8\, 2026.  Typically Yizkor is recited during morning services however due to the needs of our Boston\, downtown\, Jewish community The Boston Synagogue has pivoted to an evening option to include as many in our community to partake of this meaningful Jewish ritual. \nWhat is Yizkor \nYizkor\, in Hebrew\, means “Remember.” It is not only the first word of the prayer\, it also represents its overall theme. In this prayer\, we implore G‑d to remember the souls of our relatives and friends that have passed on. When we recite Yizkor\, we renew and strengthen the connection between us and our loved one\, bringing merit to the departed souls\, elevating them in their celestial homes. The main component of Yizkor is our private pledge to give charity following the holiday in honor of the deceased. By giving charity\, we are performing a positive physical deed in this world\, something that the departed can no longer do. The soul gains additional merit if the memory of its good deeds spurs loved ones to improve their ways. \nYizkor\, a special memorial prayer for the departed\, is recited in the synagogue four times a year\, following the Torah reading on the last day of Passover\, on the second day of Shavuot\, on Shemini Atzeret and on Yom Kippur. \nWe look forward to seeing you. See more on our Holiday page. \nCheck emails for Zoom link or email the office@bostonsynagogue.org \nIn the Spirit of Passover $18.00 donation appreciated \nWish to receive updates and current activities taking place at The Boston Synagogue join our email list and choose the topics of interest. \n\n \n\n\n\nVariable Donation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n
