Introducing בהמצאו: Finding Hashem Through Prayer, A Special Elul and Yomim Noraim Initiative
OU Torah Initiatives

Every day, we have the incredible opportunity to speak directly with the Ribbono Shel Olam, the Master of the Universe, but how often do we get distracted, daven without understanding the words, or simply forget that we are standing before Hashem?

Elevate your Elul by taking some time to truly find Hashem through the precious tefillot we express to Him each day. Over the next few weeks, you'll discover new content from some of our most insightful Torah personalities, including Rabbi Aaron Lopiansky, Rabbi Efrem Goldberg, Rebbetzin Slovie Jungreis-Wolff, Mrs. Lori Palatnik and others.
