Prayer
This curriculum is an abbreviated version of both
our Sacred Community and our Prayer curricula. While
you may find some of it helpful, we recommend that
you begin with our full Sacred Community curriculum,
and then move on to Prayer Curriculum II or II.
This curriculum assumes an understanding of the
synagogue as a place of sacred community. Liturgy is
studied through historical and theological lenses,
special attention is paid to the vocabulary of music
and the spoken word, the differences between signs
and symbols, the structure of the service and the
search for spirituality.
This curriculum is similar to curriculum II, but is
intended for more ritually observant congregations.
It deals differently with theological issues, and
includes study of how to be innovative within the
structure of halacha.
