Updated Cleveland Tehillim List Now Available

Leave a Comment

Tehillim

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

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.

ACE Update from Agudah

This past Friday, Governor DeWine signed HB 583.

Among other items, this bill extended the deadline for families that were awarded ACE accounts, which was previously set to expire on June 30th.

WE ARE AWARE OF CONFUSING INFORMATION COMING FROM THE VENDOR, MERITS, REGARDING THE EXTENSION OF THIS DEADLINE. WE HAVE BEEN ASSURED BY THE OHIO DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION THAT CLARIFICATION CONFIRMING THE EXTENSION OF THIS DEADLINE WILL BE COMING SHORTLY.

In the meantime, anyone that does have receipts for services, can upload them to the website for reimbursement.

For eligible families, whether they are current recipients of ACE, or have not yet applied, a new round of funding will open up in July. Stay tuned for details.
