Ariel Sharon

WE JOIN PEOPLE ALL OVER IN THE WORLD IN PRAYING FOR FORMER PRIME MINISTER ARIEL SHARON. WE PRAY FOR A REFUAH SHLEIMAH - A COMPLETE RECOVERY OF SPIRIT AND OF BODY.

The Jewish Agency has created an email address, thoughtsandprayers@jewishagency.org.il, through which you can express your personal thoughts and wishes to the former Prime Minister. Your message will be delivered to his office and family.

The Mi-Shebeyrakh healing prayer

May God who blessed our ancestors, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel and Leah, bring blessing and healing to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, Ariel ben Vera. May the Holy mercifully restore him to health and vigor, granting him physical and spiritual well being, together with others who are ill. Amen.

At the appropriate spot, insert the following: Rosh HaMemshalah Ariel ben Vera (Prime Minister Ariel, son of Vera). (Note: For those who add both parent's names to this prayer, we currently are unable to verify the correct name of Prime Minister Sharon's father.)
