Congregation Ner Tamid

Chesed – A Caring Community

CNT is a K’hillat Chesed Members participate in Chesed activities that create an atmosphere of connection within our own Temple family. Visiting the sick, providing transportation to a member in need and phone calls of reassurance are just a few of the important mitzvot (good deeds) carried out by this special group of volunteers.

Bikkur Cholim Society

Volunteers are trained to visit the ill and injured in the hospital or nursing home. If you know of someone who would like a visit or a call from a Chesed committee member please contact the Temple Office at 733-6292. Together we are a K’hillat Chesed… a community of loving-kindness.
