Written by UPF-Israel
Saturday, December 24, 2016
Netanya, Israel—On the evening of December 24, 2016, a prayer for Syrian families and children was held at a synagogue in Netanya led by Rabbi Edgar Nof, a senior member of UPF-Israel’s Jerusalem Interfaith Forum for Understanding and Cooperation among Religions.
Twenty members of Rabbi Nof’s community, many of who come from different countries around the world, offered prayers in Hebrew, English, Spanish, Dutch and Romanian.
“May God shower His mercy upon you,” “May the world be mercy for your misery,” “May the children of Syria have joy and light and salvation and redemption,” prayed some. “We worry for you and love you very much,” said others. Prayers were also offered for the children to settle in a warm home and grow up healthy and in a safe environment.
The prayers follow:
Aharonov Yakar: Children of Syria – may God shower His mercy upon you.
Yosefa Shaaltiel: Children of Syria – may the world be mercy for your misery.
Alexandra Marex: I hope you will gain peace.
Sara Guri: Our prayer is for the mighty Creator who is the God who saves us, and protects us. God of mercy, of peace and of life—please give life and peace for the Syrian children.
Mikel Takker: We hope that the past horrible years will be behind us, and the year of 2017 will bring you peace and happiness.
