While the Mi Shebeirach is most often recited during a Jewish service, you can say (or sing) this prayer anywhere you'd like. It could be at the bedside of a loved one or outside in nature. You also can recite the prayer to anyone you'd like. They don't have to be Jewish to receive your love and support.
This video was created at the Chicago Rabbinic Writers Lab, a program where 10 rabbis wrote Introduction to Tefillah videos in chevruta as a group.This series breaks down and explains major Jewish prayers so you can feel more knowledgeable and comfortable while attending a Jewish service. This is the third in that series, rolling out over spring of 2018.
We dedicate this video to the memory of our friend and colleague, Naomi Friedman Rabkin z’’l whose Hebrew name appears in this video. We were producing it during a time when so many in the Jewish community were praying for her health in formal language, and in their actions to repair the world. Her memory is forever a blessing.
