Our Siddur Project was written up on the front page of the Boston Jewish Advocate, December 28, 1998. Read the article.

One of the assistant editors has written a longer review.

"one of the finest prayerbooks devoted to Kabbalat Shabbat, which was put out by the Chavurah movement" -- Rabbi David Seidenberg, http://neohasid.org

We feel proud to have an enlightening and accessible service in the form of our new siddur to offer congregants, many of whom come from a range of diverse backgrounds within Judaism. Seeing the end result -- a beautiful new siddur that is both educational and inspirational, is a true accomplishment. You have given us the lasting gift of learning and prayer, something we can truly hold in our hands!

A great big Yasher Koach to you and all those involved in producing Chaverim Kol Israeil. A wonderful Siddur!!

The four part layout is perfect, correcting the problem of the Metsudah siddur while adding transliteration and meaningful comments.Added sections such as tfilot refuah and also wonderful additions. Explanations such as mechayeh hamaisim according to all the modern interpetations is unique.

It must have been a momumental job.

I love this siddur.  The transliterations are usable, the whole siddur is aesthetically pleasing and easy to use in every way, the text is fully traditional yet gracefully includes contemporary options ... it's as if the editors took every complaint about every other siddur and set out to make up for it in their own!  The number and tone of additional readings and interpretations are just right. I can't think of a thing that they could have done better.   What a pleasure to use and to own!

[This siddur] appeals to a diverse group of  Jewish students and community members ... because of its inclusive  format (Hebrew, transliteration, and English translation). Our community  members come from a variety of practicing traditions, and we have looked  far and wide to find a prayerbook that has broad appeal. Now we have found  it!

Mazel tov on the completion of your new Siddur CHAVEIRIM KOL YISRAEIL! This   labor of love is a beautiful collection of the traditional and modern.  Though packed with an amazing amount of material, it appears uncluttered and  user friendly. I'm sure it will be used and enjoyed for years to come and  will touch so many lives in a significant way.
