Question
My Jewish congregation has been asked to offer a blessing for the opening of water streams and ditches n Gunnison, Colorado. I am looking for a blessing and narrative regarding that - can you help me? Thanks
Answer
If the opening of water streams is a happy event for the community, as any happy event for more than 1 person, you should bless the ceremonious: "Baruch ata Adonai Eloheinu Melech HaOlam, HaTov v'haMeitiv", that God is good and gives abundant good. You can add the verses Yishayau 12, 3; Chronicles ii, 26, 9-10. All the best!
