O God, my God,

I pray that these things never end,

The sand and the sea,

The rush of the water,

The crash of the heavens,

The prayer of humankind.

 

- Hannah Senesh

(Israeli poet, 20th Century)

In the fall of 2002, we, the Princeton Reform Community, decided to write our own Sabbath prayer book, or Siddur. We committed to several months of community-wide study, thought and creativity. Thus, was born: The Princeton Reform Siddur Project. 

 

This page is a resource for everyone involved in the project and anyone interested in learning more. It contains general information about Jewish prayer and prayers, as well as about the progress of our work together.
