The World Celebrates Rabbi Marcia Prager

Rabbi Marcia Prager, an inspirational Jewish Renewal spiritual leader, teacher, guide, and colleague, has become a model for a new generation of lay and professional leadership. Through her, many of us have forged an intimate, passionate relationship with Judaism, with the divine in all of us, and thus, with each other.

The P'nai Or Philadelphia Jewish Renewal community is grateful that in 5772 (2011) R. Marcia celebrated 18 years of serving as our Rabbi-Chaver. In her honor, friends from around the world shared these many stories, poems, and loving tributes, to show our gratitude and naches at this wonderful milestone!



Deep and Abiding Faith in All

Dear Reb Marcia,

You have been such a tremendous influence in my development as a rabbi, a person, a student, a teacher.  I often find myself thinking about you and your many gifts.  Thank you for your generosity and spaciousness.  Thank you for your honesty.  Thank you for the times when you were hard on me and made me grow.  Most of all, thank you for your deep and abiding faith in each and every one of your talmidim.  May the Great One bless you and keep you, and continue to shine through you.


R" Elisheva Brenner
