I remember that my rUs°x siddur is

JIsë - special and unique!

I pledge to treat my rUs°x with love--I won’t put it on the floor,

get it dirty, tear it,or write on it unless it is for one of my prayer projects.

_____________ :o¥J

Imagine a day where you walk around using a magnifying glass to examine

everything you see. What amazing things do you think you will discover?

Blessings in many ways act like a magnifying glass--they help us stop and recognize even the smallest

of the amazing things in our lives.

What “small wonder” do you hope to discover today?

Something to think about... In English we often call our prayer space a “Synagogue” or ‘Temple.” You may also have heard someone use the Yiddush word “shul.” In Hebrew in addition to b-h, synagogue, there is also the phrase, gc n, from Sefer Beresheet when Avraham created a prayer space to pray to God. gc n refers to a holy place that is separate and unique. As we enter this gc n we join our community to pray together.

A song for ShabbatIt is great to thank and sing praises to God.

Every morning and night we remember our partnership with God with our voices and when we play

the lute, harp and guitar.

Planted in God’s house, the tzadik will grow fast and be strong like a Cedar Tree of Lebanon...

Even when a tzadik is old, the tzadik will be fresh and full of sap, able to declare: God is my Rock without any comparison.

Something to think about... Every day we make choices that impact who we are and what we believe. do we take time to help someone? do we rush to work or school? Every day we face challenges that define who we are. These challenges take faith, courage and conviction, just like the challenge for the Israelites as they approached the sea.

Moses and the Israelites sang this song to God after they crossed the Red Sea:

We sing songs to God Who has won the battle.The Egyptian horses and riders were pushed back by the water.

With You, we beat the Egyptian army.Your power, God, has shattered the enemy.

God spoke to Moshe and told him to tell Israel to put Tzitziot on their clothes including a string of sky blue thread

so that they would remember the mitzvot that partner us with God.

Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel taught that a mitzvah is a prayer in action.

There are many words we use to define a mitzvah: a commandment, a good deed, a requirement, a law, or an opportunity.

It’s not easy to pray.Before we begin the Amidah, we ask God for help... hp hbt

God, let me find the words to begin my Tefillah with You.

Blessed are You, God! hvt God of Avraham, hvt God of Yitzhak hvt God of Ya’akov hvt God of Sarah hvt God of Rivkah hvt God of Rahel and hvt God of Leah

Blessed are You, God, who protects Avraham and Sarah and who inspires us to:

▪support those who are in need ▪help the sick ▪free people who are trapped ▪shelter the homeless

Blessed are You, God, who renews life!

Something to think about... We learn from the Torah and are reminded in the Amidah that Avraham, Sarah and all of our ancestors created personal relationships with God. The last paragraph of the Amidah reminds us that we too can create a

personal relationship with God!

and create a personal moment with God.

Now:Before you finish the Amidah with another three steps backward

and forward, take a moment to think about a personal prayer that you want to say with God.

Close your eyes--Try to forget the world around you.

(you can even hold your siddur up to your face.)

Take a deep breath...and begin your personal prayer with...

The Hallel ServiceHallel is said on almost every holiday as a way to celebrate and make the

holiday full of ruah--spirit and fun! These six psalms are filled with words of happiness and thanks for nature, our community and God.

Before the Hallel service begins, take a moment to think about your favorite part of the holiday we are celebrating.

If we are singing Hallel because it is Rosh Hodesh, (the beginning of the month,) what new and exciting

thing do you hope to do this month?

Thank you God, ruler of the universe whose mitzvot add holiness to our lives and Who gave us the mitzvah to recite Hallel.

Halleluyah! Praise God! Sing praises to God from the east to the west and in all places in the

world. Who is like God? Who is beyond all things?God lifts up the poor, God raises the needy

so that they can be valued with the powerful as one nation.

When Israel left the land of Egypt, Israel became God’s nation.

God’s presence fills the world…God’s presence is in the thunder in the skies

and the waters of the ocean, the majesty of forests

and the animals of the world.God’s power shatters the cedars of Lebanon

and makes the mountain skip like a ram.

God will rule forever, giving us strength and blessing us with Shalom.

This is our God. There is no other; as it is written in the Torah.

Kaddish Yatom, Mourner’s Kaddish is said by loved ones for people who have died in the last year and on their Yartzeits--the yearly memorial of their deaths.

Everyone in the kehillah, the community, helps to say the Mourner’s Kaddish, but only the mourner stands.

The mourner stands so that the community can recognize who needs extra attention and love.

Other ways we can help the mourner say Mourner’s Kaddish:

○ Please don’t talk.

○ The community’s line starts with “¥vh“ --be sure to say that line in a strong and supportive way

○ If the mourner is new to your community, be sure to comfort him or her and welcome him or her to our kehillah.
