Days of Gratitude Activities
Judaism teaches us to start our day with a prayer of gratitude, Modeh Ani ("I give you thanks" in Hebrew). This daily verbal act of appreciation has been practiced for hundreds of years by Jews all over the world. The mission for Days of Gratitude is to acknowledge blessings and increase resilience for individuals and communities through intentional expressions of gratitude. These activities enhance relationships through the power of gratitude to increase resilience, strengthen unity, and expand kindness.
