The Jewish Chaplaincy Society
The Jewish Chaplaincy Society is a Canadian nonprofit organization (Business Registration Number: 857308530RR0001) providing spiritual care and life cycle ceremonies to the Jewish community in British Columbia. Established to serve individuals outside traditional synagogue frameworks, the organization focuses on inclusive practices, offering support for events such as interfaith and same-sex weddings, conversions, funerals, and memorials[1][3].
Services and Mission
The organization emphasizes accessibility to Jewish traditions for those unaffiliated with congregations, including marginalized groups and individuals in federal prisons. Its chaplains, such as Rabbi Dina-Hasida Mercy—an ordained liberal rabbi affiliated with Jewish Renewal—deliver spiritual counseling, educational programs, and rites tailored to diverse needs[3].
Leadership and Affiliation
Rabbi Mercy, trained through the Aleph: Alliance for Jewish Renewal and ordained by the Rabbinic Seminary International, leads the society’s efforts in collaboration with federal institutions and community partners. The organization aligns with pluralistic Jewish Renewal principles, emphasizing inclusivity and spiritual innovation[3][5].
Historical Context
While specific founding details are unclear, the society operates within a broader Canadian spiritual care framework, reflecting trends in non-denominational chaplaincy and interfaith collaboration[4][5].
