Hineni
Support at the loss of a loved one
Hineini is a group of Beth El members who respond to the needs of mourners in our synagogue community. The assistance may include preparing the home for mourning, arranging for meals, helping with home shiva minyans, providing a ride or a “buddy” for regular daily minyans...whatever the particular needs of each specific mourner.
If you would like assistance from Hineini:
Please contact Rabbi Rosen or Rabbi Sowalsky or the synagogue office at (860) 233-9696.
If you would like to help mourners in need:
Our goal is to help every mourner with their specific needs. We send email notifications to Hineini members when needs arise. If you are able to meet that need, simply respond to the email. Some volunteers are able to respond often while others, as they have time. Mourners are so appreciative of our help; your work with Hineini is a real mitzvah. If you would like to participate in Hineini please contact our office to connect with our Care Coordinator Leah Katz or any member of the professional staff.

And yes, fries, hot dogs, and beer are also available there. You can go to this private section when you want to take a break from your field seats, get refreshments, and schmooze with others. Our group will be recognized at the game. There will be a shout out for the Beth El Men's Club! One of us will get to throw out a first pitch! There may be other surprises! Kids run the bases after the game! Tickets are limited, so you are urged to put in your RSVP as soon as possible. You may request to be seated with others who are placing their RSVP separately. -
