Traditional Jewish Mortuary | Burial in Israel | Sholom Chapels Mortuaries Special $4500 Offer: "As a traditional Jewish mortuary, we offer those services that have been set forth through the Tri-partate commission - the commission that oversees all Jewish mortuaries and burial practices in the United States. This commission, which encompasses the Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform movements, was established to set up guidelines as to what is considered a proper Jewish funeral and burial. In keeping with the commission's recommendations, and of course in keeping with our Jewish heritage and law, Sholom Chapels provides only those services that are in keeping with the Torah and the teachings of our sages. Thus, we will never provide cremation or embalming services. Our memorial counselors are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to answer your questions, and assist you with the many decisions and choices that will be made. Our own Chevra Kadisha (Holy burial society) on staff provides the Taharah (ritual washing and dressing) as well as the Shmira (prayers recited at night for the deceased from the book of Psalms.)"

More and more individuals have made their final arrangements to be buried in the Holy Land. We are in close contact with the Chevra Kadisha of every major cemetery in every city in Israel. We are knowledgeable and experienced as to the various requirements to transfer a loved one for interment in Israel; from the initial contacts made with the local Israeli consulate, to the final arrangements with the Israeli Ministry of Health in Jerusalem. We even have a large number of burial sites in Israel available for purchase through our mortuary office.

Most Jews everywhere have strong attachments to Israel. We support it financially; we exert our influence in its behalf; we rejoice in its triumphs; and we happily exude pride in the new image it has given the Jew. Indeed, it is our homeland, emotionally as well as religiously. To make arrangements for an enduring association with this land, even after death, is a meaningfully extension of this attachment.

The most powerful antidote to intermarriage and assimilation throughout the world is the newly discovered love, pride and sense of identification with the Holy Land. For young people, particularly, the impact has been striking. When parents make arrangements for their final resting place to be in Israel, it undoubtedly has a powerful influence upon their children. It ensures a permanent association with the Holy Land, the resting place of their parents.
