Candle Lighting

We welcome every Holiday with the lighting of candles. (Light candles.) May the holiday fill our spirits with light.

Baruch atah adonoy, elohenu melech haloam, shehecheyanu, v'keeyimanu v'heegeeyanu lazman hazeh.

Kiddush - The First Cup of Wine - To the Earth

We drink the first cup of wine in gratitude to the earth and its bounty. The earth is our home. May we learn to take good care of it.

Baruch atah Adonoy, Elohenu melech haolam, boreh p'ri hagofen.

Now we wash our hands.
