STRONGER TOGETHER!
The war in Israel is about who we are and what we stand for – an ongoing attempt to uproot our eternal values and history.
In response, this year’s Shabbat Project is a clear statement of intent – a call for every Jew in every corner of the globe to keep Shabbat from sunset on Friday, November 3, until stars out on Saturday, November 4. A sublime moment of global Jewish unity. One people. One heart. One Shabbat.
To make it simple and straightforward, we have a variety of resources and support materials to enrich your Shabbat experience and empower you to keep Shabbat!
They include:
-
Guide to Keeping Shabbat – practical, user-friendly DIY guide empowering you to keep Shabbat
-
The Gift of Shabbat – inspiring essay exploring the “why” of Shabbat, and how its restrictions actually liberate us, bringing us joy, meaning and connection
-
Shabbat Toolkit – series of cards outlining Shabbat blessings, prayers and practices
-
Candle-lighting Prayers – traditional blessing + special prayer for Israel by Chief Rabbi Goldstein
-
The Mitzvah of Shabbat Candles – learning module delving into the meaning of Shabbat candles
Let’s Keep it Together for Israel.
Am Yisrael Chai!
