Tefilah (Prayer)
6 - 7

This curriculum explores key Jewish prayers and the deeper meanings behind them.  While the fixed liturgy is a key part of this curriculum, it also stresses the need for campers to decide their own prayer style and regimen while still being part of a community.  It also examines ways in which the campers can bring the prayer experiences they have at camp back home.
