Our plans

Three yearly plans, depending on how many visits you would like. All of them include upkeep, a memorial candle, prayers and a photo report.

Every plan includes: cleaning and weeding, a small stone, a memorial candle, Tehillim and El Malei Rachamim, before-and-after photos.

Yahrzeit, Elul, Rosh Chodesh… what these dates mean

Yahrzeit: The anniversary of the passing, according to the Hebrew calendar (Hazkara).
Elul: The month before Rosh Hashana, when families traditionally visit their loved ones’ graves.
Eve of Yom Kippur: A day when it is customary to visit the graves of loved ones.
Adar and Nissan: Adar comes before Nissan, the month of Pesach. By custom, cemetery visits are avoided during Nissan, so we visit just before.
Rosh Chodesh: The first day of each Hebrew month. It is a festive day on which, by custom, people do not visit the cemetery.
