Yizkor Booklet

Each Yom Kippur, we say the Yizkor prayer to remember all of our loved ones who have passed on.

Yizkor, 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 spur their loved ones to improve their ways.

Each Yom Kippur, Chabad makes a Yizkor booklet to remember all our loved ones.  Each name in the booklet is $18.  Please fill out the form below to add your loved one's name to the Yizkor booklet.

All names need to be in by Sept 22 to be included in the Yizkor Booklet.
