SUMMARY:Seventh Day of Pesach: Yizkor & Hallel
DESCRIPTION:☆ To join us ONLINE\, please click here to register via Zoom. \n\nJoin us on Zoom at 10am on Monday\, April 29 for a short morning service that will include Yizkor (the memorial prayers said four times a year) and Hallel (the psalms of praise we sing at every festival). Yizkor is recited on the last day of Pesach. Following Reform custom of celebrating seven days of Passover\, the seventh day begins Sunday evening and continues through Monday. \n\nIf you want to pray the Yizkor prayers on your own at another time\, here is the core silent prayer of the Yizkor service: \n \nHere is a link to the Yizkor prayers at Sefaria\, and here is an online shiva booklet that includes words of the Mourner’s Kaddish\, El Maleh Rachamim (“God\, Full of Compassion”)\, and Psalm 23.\n\nMay the memories of our loved ones lift us up\, this Pesach and always.
