NOTE: REMEMBER TO TURN OFF MUTE AND TURN UP THE VOLUME TO HEAR THE BLESSINGS! DESCRIPTION Baruch Atah Ado...? Perhaps you dropped out of Hebrew school a little too soon or are learning Hebrew for the very first time. With just a touch of the finger, this app will recite with you aloud one of 6 blessings of your choice including the blessings over challah, wine, and washing of the hands. Also included are the prayers of "Modeh Ani" and the "Shema." The blessings are first said in Hebrew and then translated into English, leaving enough time after each word for you to repeat the blessing. It is a mitzvah (commandment) for Jewish people to recite blessings before and after eating or drinking. These unique and age-old blessings help one connect with G-d to express thankfulness and gratitude. Now you can say the correct blessings in the original Hebrew wherever you are. Never fumble or mumble a blessing again! This is the iPhone/iTouch version of our original keychain available at www.SayABlessing.com. Do a Mitzvah Today!
