Siddur Birkat Shalom

~ One of the ways Havurat Shalom expresses our commitment to egalitarianism is by davenning with Siddur Birkat Shalom, a prayer book being developed by our own Siddur Project. Siddur Birkat Shalom contains the Shabbat morning service before the Amidah, meditations on the Amidah, and the Aleinu.

Features of this work-in-progress include:

~ Hebrew and English egalitarian language for both God and humans
~ New, original blessing for diversity
~ Greater variety of God images
~ New perspectives on Jews and non-Jews, good and evil, reward and punishment, and hierarchy
~ The newest edition is due out "soon-ish" (the cost will be announced at that time).

You can purchase Siddur Birkat Shalom for $18.00. (You can subtract $3.00 if you can pick up your copy, rather than having it mailed to you.) Send a check with a note that it's for the siddur, or make an on-line donation and email info@thehav.org that it's for a siddur.
