Before beginning the Amidah, take three steps back, then three steps forward. Recite the Amidah quietly—but audibly to yourself—while standing with feet together. http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/867673/jewish/Transliteration.htm

							                	Since the prayer Jesus taught his disciples (The Lord's Prayer) is apparently an abbreviated version of the Amidah ("Standing," in Hebrew) or Eighteen Benedictions, I think it is important for Christians to be familiar with this central prayer of Jewish religious life. http://www1.cbn.com/biblestudy/the-amidah-prayer

							                	The Shulchan Aruch writes (94:1) that while praying the Amidah one should face towards the direction of Israel. In the United States, which is to the west of Israel, one faces towards the east. For this reason, synagogues generally position the Heichal on the eastern wall. http://www.dailyhalacha.com/m/halacha.aspx?id=1315
