Hakhel was advised, in the name of Rabbi Shimshon Lonner,
Shlita, that there are 19 weeks left until Rosh Hashana. The number 19, of
course, brings to mind the 19 Brachos of Shemone Esrei. If we would attempt
to put special Kavannos into one Bracha a week over the next 19 weeks, we
will have infused our Shemone Esrei with special potency and power over this
very same period. Below you will find archives from this special
initiative, with each page representing lessons from past weeks relating to
each of the 19 Brachos. At the bottom of each page is a link to the
next Bracha and to the previous Bracha, as well as a link back to this page.
May our dedication to proper Tefillah not only save us from
any pending or impending difficulties or situations--but also, as in the
days of Mitzrayim bring us to Geulah--this time Geulah Sheleimah BeMeheirah
Veyameinu!
