Israel: How you can help

Israel is in our thoughts and prayers. Here are a range of ways you can support the people of Israel.

1. Come to shul. Our shuls are saying extra prayers for Israel and standing in solidarity with our people.

2. Donate. Many Israel charities have launched emergency appeals. Please consider donating at this difficult time.

3. Pray. Please join us in reciting some prayers for the healing of the wounded, the comforting of those tragically bereaved, the swift rescue of those taken captive and protection from further violence.

The Chief Rabbi has composed a new prayer for Israel which you can read here.

Psalm 23: In this Psalm and prayer King David expresses his trust in God and hope for the future

Psalm 120 is a prayer by King David to save him from people who sought peace but mean war.

Psalm 121 is associated with the prayers of our patriarch Yaakov, Jacob, for God’s protection from the wrath of his brother Esav, Esau.

Psalm 130 asks God to listen to our prayers and answer our pleas.

The Prayer for the State of Israel is recited each Shabbat in our services. In particular, we focus on its request for peace.
