Tkhines: women’s prayers
OUR SUMMER OF TKHINES
Welcome to the enchanting world of tkhines, those beautiful individualized Yiddish prayers that connect us to our heritage! This online event is a golden opportunity to hear from esteemed speakers Rabbi Marna Sapsowitz and Yiddish teacher and translator Sharon Power about their discovery and exploration of this unique body of Yiddish liturgy that spans centuries and is used to this day.
Experience the rich tapestry of Yiddish culture as you engage with heartfelt liturgy that resonates with yearning and spirituality. Whether you’re a lifelong enthusiast or new to Yiddish traditions, this session promises to be a delight!
Wanting to find a loving mate? To safeguard a traveling mate? To transform a bad marriage? To conceive and birth a healthy child? To help that child become a decent human being? To earnestly fulfill your duties as a Jew? The expression of these kinds of universal desires in a unique folk liturgy is what makes the exploration of tkhines so fascinating.
