Shehecheyanu

The Jewish Blessing for Firsts

There’s a lot of emphasis in Judaism on stopping to recognize special moments. Some do this in the form of a prayer or a blessing for the first time they are doing something new. Take a moment to learn this prayer, so the next time you find yourself in a first, you’ll know what to say.

This project was made possible with generous support from The Koret Foundation, as part of its Initiative on Jewish Peoplehood.
