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!



A Teacher's Teacher


Reb Marcia has a way of helping her students reach deeper within themselves than they ever thought possible.  She did that for me.  In a Davennen Leadership Training Institute, she enabled me to reach within and davven a "Nishmat Kol Chai" that seemed to be channeled from another realm.  

She is a teacher's teacher, a gentle wise eishet chazon who deserves great kavod.  She had me at "nishmat".
