What is Aneinu?
Aneinu was started 13 years ago, by Mrs. Shaindy Kappel. She was
galvanized into action upon hearing of the illness of her friend’s daughter.
Aneinu is under the rabbinical supervision of Rav Dovid Weinberger, Rav of
Shaarei Tefilah in Lawrence Long Island who thought of the concept of
dividing Sefer Tehillim into bookets , forming groups of women to say
Tehillim together in 1 room under 1 roof and then saying a Me’Shebarach for
Cholim and /or Me’shebarch for Shidduchim (text of both is provided).
Women, together with all of Klal Yisroel, have been reaching for Sefer
Tehillim since Dovid HaMelech bequeathed this treasure to us close to three
thousand years ago. What is new about an ANEINU Tehillim Chaburah? The
uniqueness and power of this new type of group lies in the collective
strengths of all the women gathered. Some of the women are veteran Tehillim
sayers, others painstakingly recite the ancient words, while still others
will use an English translation. The Sefer Tehillim is pre-divided into 24
pamphlets. Each woman takes a different pamphlet and says it silently, but
in the presence of all the other women. There is no pressure to keep to a
regulated pace because each woman recites her own Tehillim chapters with her
own nigun and within her own time frame. Together, in an abbreviated amount
of time, they complete the entire Sefer Tehillim simultaneously. Since each
woman will select a booklet randomly, the element of “hashgocho” is, at
times, quite apparent.
