With rising interest in the 1960s in Zionism and The Holocaust , as well as an upsurge in Jewish pride and identity following the Six-Day War , it became clear that the '' Union Prayer Book '' was no longer adequate . The CCAR released an updated prayer book , edited by Rabbi Chaim Stern as part of a committee chaired by Rabbi A. Stanley Dreyfus . The new '' Gates of Prayer , the New Union Prayer Book '' was announced in October 1975 as a replacement for the '' UPB '' , incorporating more Hebrew content and was updated to be more accessible to modern worshipers
