Specialized Memorials - Services

The merit of Torah study and prayer is a powerful tool that benefits both the living and the departed. Whether you desire to memorialize Victim of the Holocaust, provide merit for an Israeli Soldier, or sponsor a scholarship for a needy individual, Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah offers a wide variety of options for you and your family to choose from, in order to access these tremendous sources of blessing.

Surrogate Mishnah Study

Many individuals are interested in providing a specialized memorial through the inestimable merit of Mishnah study, but lack the necessary background and scholarship. Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah can enable you to fulfill this desire, by commissioning a Torah scholar to study and complete a tractate of Mishnah in time for the shloshim (thirtieth day after burial) or yahrtzeit (anniversary of passing). When the course of study is nearing completion, the sponsor is given the option of studying the conclusion of the tractate together with the scholar, either in person or through interactive distance learning, using a vocalized and translated text provided by Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah. Upon completion, this significant achievement will be commemorated with a handsome certificate.

Comprehensive Mishnah Study

Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah can enable you to grant the ultimate gift: the study of the entire Six Orders of Mishnah, a primary source of merit for departed souls. Our network of dedicated Torah scholars can undertake this monumental achievement exclusively in the merit of the person you seek to memorialize. Upon completion, this impressive undertaking will be commemorated with a striking certificate.

Supportive Mishnah Study

Many individuals choose to study Mishnah on their own, in memory of their loved ones. Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah is the premier source of assistance in enabling you to reach your goal. Our user-friendly, Hebrew and English Mishnah charts can facilitate the easy recording of all participants in your course of study. Guide notes and reminder cards are also available, free of charge. If you are having difficulty reaching your goal independently, Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah can step in and commission Torah scholars to complete all of the missing tractates. Upon the completion of ten or more tractates, your contribution will be commemorated with a unique certificate.

Talmud/Gemara Study

Incorporating all of the features of our Mishnah study programs, the Talmud/Gemara option caters to individuals who wish to sponsor a rigorous, scholarly regimen of Torah study. Choose a designated tractate, or opt for the maximum achievement: the completion of the entire Talmud Bavli. A stunning plaque, including the name of the sponsored departed as well as those of the donors, will mark the occasion of this monumental achievement.

Completion of the Entire Six Orders/The Talmud Bavli in One Day

An incredible accomplishment in the truest sense of the word, Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah is proud to have recently incorporated this most unique service. The study of the entire Six Orders of Mishnah, from start to completion, on the shloshim (thirtieth day after burial) or yahrtzeit (anniversary of passing) day itself, serves as a remarkable tribute and merit for the departed. For those who yearn for the ultimate, Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah offers the most impressive service of all: the study of the entire Talmud Bavli on the shloshim or yahrtzeit day. Commemorated with an eye-catching Mishnah certificate or Talmud plaque, this monumental accomplishment will be admired and remembered by the living for years to come, while bringing eternal merit to the departed soul.

Daily Mishnah or Talmud Study

Our sages teach us that the first year following an individual's passing is a time of judgment for the soul (Gemara Rosh HaShanah, 17a). The study of Mishnah or Talmud/Gemara can greatly ease the travails of a soul during this critical time. Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah is pleased to be able to provide a dedicated Torah scholar who will study Mishnah or Talmud every single day, for this entire crucial year, or any year thereafter, to provide merit for your loved one.

Kaddish Recital

The recital of Kaddish, the classic prayer professing the sanctity of G-d's name, has the capability to provide the departed soul with eternal reward in the hereafter. Not surprisingly, Kaddish recital has become synonymous with bestowing merit upon departed loved ones throughout the millennia. Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah can ensure that Kaddish will be said in the proper forum in the merit of the individual you wish to sponsor, bestowing upon the departed a most meaningful, eternal gift in the Hereafter.

Yizkor Service

Yizkor, a unique prayer set aside for the benefit of the souls of those who have passed on to the next world, is recited on designated Jewish holidays. Traditionally, Yizkor is recited by children on behalf of their departed parents, and also by family members on behalf of lost relatives. Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah can grant the souls of the departed a remembrance and eternal elevation, through the recital of the Yizkor prayer in the synagogue, at the appropriate times of year.

Tehillim/Psalms Recital

In times of sadness and mourning, there are no words that express our feelings better than those authored by King David in his classic Psalms. Chevrah Lomdei Mishnah can commission a Torah scholar to recite the amount of chapters you request, in the memory of the individual you seek to memorialize.
