About this app

What will you find in the app?

📖 Books
The digital Samaritan bookcase. Essays, commentaries, prayer books and textbooks - everything is available for direct reading on the device, with search options by author, holiday or topic.

🎵 Music and poetry
Pyyutim, songs and traditional music pieces performed by the community's priests and nuns. Listen directly in the app, even in the background using other screens, without stopping the melody.

✍️ Essays and interviews
Articles, interviews and testimonies from community members - history, culture, customs and personal stories passed down from generation to generation.

📸 Historical photos
Thousands of photos documented by decades, from the 1920s to the present day. A journey through time through weddings, holidays, key figures and community events. Each time you open the screen - the order of the photos changes, and you will discover new angles each time.

The traditional calendar of holidays and dates, including Samaritan Passover, Shavuot, Sukkot, Yom Kippur, Shemini Atzeret, and Mount Sinai. With a few clicks you can see what the next holiday is, when it falls, and what its meaning is.

🎉 Upcoming Holidays
A dedicated screen that displays which holidays are coming up, the exact dates in the Samaritan and Gregorian calendars, and in which years there is a double Sabbath.
