Education Ministry's initiative sees all of Israel's religious schools conducting a prayer for rainfall. The prayer was broadcast live on Arutz 7.
Following an initiative by the director of the religious school system in the Education Ministry, Dr. Abraham Lifschitz, public religious schools throughout Israel held a special prayer service on Wednesday morning, in which they asked for G-d's help in bringing more rainfall to Israel, which is suffering from a drought for the seventh year in a row.
Arutz Sheva's Hebrew website also joined the effort to bring together schools from all over the country, and presented a live webcast of the main prayer service which was held in Yeshivat Horev in Jerusalem and was headed by Israel's Chief Sephardic Rabbi (Rishon LeTziyon) Shlomo Amar.
