Aish founder, Rabbi Noah Weinberg, of blessed memory, would say to young people: “When older people see your idealism, they might say, ‘you’ll grow up,’ but what they really mean is ‘you’ll give up.'” Rabbi Weinberg would say: “Never give up––get tougher instead.” | |
Let us pray for the Members of Congress and this great Nation: God, please grant us clarity and courage to always do right and never give up on our principles. | |
God bless the United States of America. |

The Open Siddur Project is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, non-denominational, non-prescriptive, gratis & libré Open Access archive of contemplative praxes, liturgical readings, and Jewish prayer literature (historic and contemporary, familiar and obscure) composed in every era, region, and language Jews have ever prayed. Our goal is to provide a platform for sharing open-source resources, tools, and content for individuals and communities crafting their own prayerbook (siddur). Through this we hope to empower personal autonomy, preserve customs, and foster creativity in religious culture. If you like what you've found here, please help keep our project alive and online with your financial contribution.
