Spirituality * Judaism * Religion * Ritual and TraditionThe Minyan: A Tapestry of Jewish Life took over 10 years to complete.

On these pages are woven the threads of both famous and lesser-known individuals whose lives were changed by joining with others in study and prayer at critical times in their lives.
