As in previous years, the “Chaverim Lirfuah” organization – that provides medication and assistance in times of need and organizes summer camps for special-needs children – came to the Western Wall with the children to pray for their recovery and that of others in the Jewish nation.
It was moving for us to accompany their emotional prayers that held all the worshippers spellbound.
May we hear good news of a complete recovery for all who are sick.
Prayers to the Western Wall from 140 countries: “For My House shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.”
Ahead of Rosh Hashanah, in keeping with tradition: Prayer notes placed between the stones of the Western Wall over the past six months have been removed and transferred for ritual burial.
