\n \n

Yizkor\, in Hebrew\, means "Remember." It is not only the first word of the prayer\, it a lso represents its overall theme. In this prayer\, we implore G‑d to remember the souls of our relat ives and friends that have passed on.

When we recite Yizkor\, we renew and strengthe n the connection between us and our loved one\, br inging merit to the departed souls\, elevating the m in their celestial homes.

\n \n

The ma in component of Yizkor is our private pledge to gi ve charity following the holiday in honor of the d eceased. By giving charity\, we are performing a p ositive physical deed in this world\, something th at the departed can no longer do.

\n \n

The soul gains additional merit if the memory of i ts good deeds spurs loved ones to improve their wa ys.
