We invite you to add the name of a person in need of comfort and healing* to our list of names that we read during our services. Once you've entered the name here, it will be read aloud each week until you ask us to remove the name. Please submit a separate form for each name by noon on Friday so we can say the name(s) that Friday night.
To make changes or contact us with questions, please email Daniella Yitzchak at
office@keenesynagogue.org or Rabbi Dan Aronson at

*In our community we recite the Misheberach prayer for persons who are recovering from an illness or medical procedure or who are suffering physically, emotionally and/or spiritually, regardless if their suffering is acute or chronic. While many are inclined to pray for the spiritual healing of mourners, the customary way of comforting mourners in the Jewish tradition is through visitation during shiva and personal expressions of condolence. The names of mourners are also mentioned when we say the names of the deceased before we recite Kaddish.
