Pray with Me – New Years Day!
Let’s start the secular year off right with a global Shacharit (morning prayers)! Even if you’ve never considered getting up and doing prayers first thing in the morning – when is a better time?
- Date: 1/1/2013
- Time: 10am EST
- Siddur: Shacharit New Years Day 2013
- Where: Google Hangouts
This time, I won’t be over at OneShul.org, because I want to experiment with Google Hangouts, which is more like Skype. Using this technology means I’ll actually be able to see and hear at least 9 of you! If you aren’t comfortable on camera — that’s okay. There is also a chat room feature. You will need a Google+ account to participate, though. The service will NOT be recorded, so none of us have to worry about if we look silly or sound bad, etc.
Because we’re doing this on Google Hangouts — it’s making it harder for me to give you a link until the last minute. But — all you have to do is check back here the morning of 1/1/13 — and it will be right here for you!
I’ll also be posting the Siddur in the next couple of days. It will be derived from my regular morning prayer practice, which is from the Kohenet Siddur.
Mini Manifesto:
Culture: I am fascinated by both culture on most levels. I mostly focus on American culture and what makes us who we are as a country, but I'm also intrigued by sub-cultures in the USA and the growing global cultural trends.
Technology: Technology is one of the strongest drivers of cultural and even spiritual changes in the last 100 years, and possibly the next 100.
