Bikur Cholim translates from Hebrew to visiting the sick. Our mission is to connect congregants who can:
- Visit with those who are ill or homebound.
- Share some time when someone is lonely.
- Be a smiling face or helping hand to those who are in need of comfort
Receiving A Visit

A visitor could:

- Visit with you in your home, hospital or nursing home.
- Share the news, a cup of tea, a book or a song.
- Call you when they are at the store to offer, “I’m here. What can I pick up for you?”
- Bring a meal to your family during a difficult time.
