Prayer for Peace and Strength
 
Dear Community Members, 

As we've witnessed from afar the terrible atrocities that have been committed in our beloved homeland of Israel, may the Jewish Communities
here on Maui and throughout the nation stand in solidarity for the violence to stop and pray for the souls of innocent lives lost, strength and protection of those who survived and for peace...

Holy One of blessing,
We pray for the soldiers who are called to defend the people of Israel. Keep them safe.
When they are weary give them strength. 
When they are scared give them courage. May they find strength and faith in the days ahead.

Holy One of blessing,
We pray for the people of Israel who long to live under the canopy of peace. Keep them safe. When they are threatened protect them from harm.
When they are wounded and bereaved grant them healing and comfort.

May they find strength and courage in the days ahead.
May our voices carry prayers of hope that the people of Israel know that they are not alone.
Give us strength and know that there is nothing more sacred than peace.
Grant us Faith. Courage. Wisdom.

- Rabbi Karyn D. Kedar


May you and your loved ones continue to be well and safe wherever you are. 

With much Aloha and Pono.
