Tehillim

An updated Tehillim List of the Cleveland Tehillim Chevra is now available.

Click for printable PDF version. You can also visit the Cleveland Tehillim List page to see changes between publications of the list.

The list is published as a partnership between Local Jewish News and Mrs. Chanie Malcmacher in the hope that it will cause even more community members to be mispalel on behalf of those in need. It will continue its practice of approximately six bi-monthly print editions.

In order to maintain seder, the following long-standing guidelines remain in place for the inclusion of a name:

  • The choleh must be a Clevelander or the direct relative of a Clevelander
  • The exactly correct Hebrew name and its correct spelling must be provided
  • Permission of the family must have been obtained
  • The choleh must be reconfirmed for each edition of the list

Currently, the community has the merit of completing the entire Tehillim nearly two times daily. To participate in a daily completion of the Tehillim, please email Mrs. Malcmacher at justdaven@gmail.com.

Cleveland Yachad Launches Junior Division to Serve Growing Need For Individuals Ages 10-15

Leave a Comment

In response to increasing demand and growth within our community, Cleveland Yachad is excited to announce the launch of a Junior Yachad division!

Junior Yachad will serve individuals ages 10-15, offering inclusive social/recreational programming to Jewish children with special needs together with their typically-developing peers. Our unique inclusive model, with an emphasis on collaborative community programs, encourages acceptance and feelings of belonging while reducing loneliness and stigma. This is accomplished by fostering the development of organic friendships between individuals with special needs and their same-aged peers, a model that benefits both groups immeasurably. Yachad serves individuals with a wide range of disabilities and from all Jewish backgrounds and levels of affiliation.

Yachad seeks to partner with local organizations, schools, and synagogues and is invested in minimizing duplication or overlap of services in the community. To that end, open communication with other community agencies is ongoing to reduce scheduling conflicts between organizations and to ensure that the Junior Yachad programming continues to address unmet needs within our community.

Junior Yachad plans to run bi-monthly programs, offering an exciting variety of recreational, therapeutic, creative, and fitness programs, in addition to events with Jewish themes. Programs are under the supervision and direction of Penina Sauber, a seasoned professional with experience as a special education teacher, community habilitation supervisor, and an intervention specialist. High school and college-aged students will provide additional support at events to ensure the safety, well-being, and meaningful integration of all participants.

Please spread the word and help refer neighbors, family, and friends. To apply, for more information, or if you would like your synagogue, school, or group to partner with us, please contact Penina Sauber at SauberP@ou.org or 732-864-7693.

Junior Yachad programs are already underway. Contact Yachad today to get involved!

“After three years of fighting for more kosher beef, we finally have it! We have more flanken than any other US location. We are loaded. So come in and help us show the higher management that this is what you, the Kosher Cleveland community wants.” Fresh packaged salmon is in also and chicken will be in as of Wed Oct 31.
