A prayer for you at the Western Wall

Chanukah orders close Wednesday, December 2

If you can't stand before these stones yourself, we will stand there for you. A personal prayer, said in your name at the Kotel in Jerusalem, with photo proof that it happened.

A Chanukah gift of light

Chanukah celebrates the miracle in the Beit HaMikdash, and the Kotel is its last standing wall. This year you can give someone you love a prayer said there: for a parent, a friend who needs a yeshuah, or the person who has everything. Every gift order comes with a digital certificate in the recipient's name - and tier 6 below covers a prayer on each of the eight days.

Questions

Asked and answered

How do I know my prayer really happened?
You receive a photo or short video of the prayer with your name visible, within the hour. On Shabbat and Yom Tov we do not photograph, so proof for those days arrives as soon as Shabbat is out.
Who will pray for me?
One of our avreichim, Torah scholars who learn in the Old City of Jerusalem, minutes from the Wall. We tell you his name before the prayer, and your purchase supports his learning and his family.
What name should I give?
A Hebrew name in the traditional form, for example Sarah bat Rivka. Not sure of the exact form? Send the English name and we will work it out with you.
Can I order for someone else?
Yes, and it is our most common order. Give us their Hebrew name and, for gifts, we include a certificate in their name that you can print or forward.
When will my prayer be said?
We confirm your date within 24 hours of your order, usually within a day or two. Chanukah orders placed by December 2 are said on the first night.
