Invite A Soldier To Your Seder:
Put an IDF Tefilla Card in Every Haggadah

The Passover seder affords an excellent opportunity to support the Orthodox Union's Tefilla Card program, which has the double goal of praying daily for the welfare of the men and women of the Israel Defense Forces and at the same time of relieving the financial distress experienced by many of these soldiers and their families.

Howard Rhine, OU Vice President, Chair of its Israel Task Force and the program's founder, says that by "Inviting a Soldier to Your Seder," the cards may be inserted into haggadahs and the prayer recited at the seder.

The Tefilla card program involves the sale of up to 100,000 credit-card sized cards featuring the MiSheberach leChayalei Tzahal - the prayer for the Israel Defense Forces - for use by individuals and groups. The price of each card is one dollar. The card features a full color photograph of Israeli soldiers at the Western Wall on one side and the prayer on the other.

"Although tens of thousands of these cards have been purchased already, there are so many people out there who have yet to participate in this wonderful program and such novel ways to contribute," Mr. Rhine declared. "I urge those who have not yet already done so to become involved, and those who have participated to continue and to reach out to others. It is also very important to recite the prayer at the seder, both to protect our soldiers and in the hope that thousands of voices raised in prayer will be received before the Heavenly Throne. The Passover seder is a wonderful opportunity to show our support for the brave men and women who are protecting Israel."
