Easy Daven
How often have you been asked to say a Refua Shleyma for someone you don't really know? Many of us receive these requests through emails, we often found ourselves skimming though a name on a list with little consideration and would rarely remember to mention the person in our evening davening. On the other hand, our traditions teach us that prayers do make a difference. We decided to try to use the Internet to help people fulfill the mitzvah of davening for the sick. Should you find yourself called upon to help another Jew in need we trust you will find it a little easier to do your bit with easydaven.com .
