The "Mi she-Berakh for Agunot and Mesorvot Get" which I composed is scheduled to be recited this coming Shabbat, the Shabbat which precedes the International Aguna Day, marked on Ta'anit Esther, in shuls throughout the Jewish world. The prayer is also suitable to be recited on Ta'anit Esther itself, and likewise on Purim, which is considered particularly to be a day of òú øöåï ("et ratzon").
An article in Hebrew which includes an introduction to the prayer, the nusah of the prayer, and "mare mekomot" to the sources upon which the prayer is based is posted on the Kolech website at the following link. http://www.kolech.org/show.asp?id=31920 The publication of an official English translation is forthcoming. May our prayers on behalf of Agunot be answered.
