Ladies...

Today, Dec. 3, 2005 is the 11th anniversary of the passing of
Elizabeth Glaser. Light a candle and celebrate the memory of this
courageous woman. Share her mission of hope by volunteering for an
AIDS program near you or by making a donation to the Elizabeth
Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (http//:www.pedaids.org).


Kaddish is recited every year on the day of the Yahrtzeit (Hebrew
anniversary of death).

One important way to elevate the deceaseds soul is by saying
Kaddish. Kaddish does not mention the dead, but is rather a praise
of God. We declare that even though we have suffered a loss, we
acknowledge that God knows best, and we place our trust in Him.

By saying Kaddish, it is considered a merit for the deceased to be
the cause, so to speak, of having this praise of God expressed
publicly.


"May His great Name grow exalted and sanctified
in the world that He created as He willed. May He make His kingship
reign in your lifetimes and in your days, and in the lifetimes of
all the Jewish people, swiftly and soon. Now respond: Amen.

May His great Name be blessed forever and ever.
Blessed, praised, glorified, exalted, extolled, mighty, upraised,
and lauded be the Name of the Holy One, Blessed is He beyond any
blessing and song, praise and consolation that are uttered in the
world. Now respond: Amen.

May there be great peace from Heaven,
and life upon us and upon all Israel. Now respond: Amen.
He Who makes peace in His Heavens, may He make peace
upon us and upon all Israel. Now respond: Amen."


Sincerely,
Pam
