Can somebody point me toward an internet resource for Jewish feminst Shabbat liturgy, particularly the sort with female God-language? I know of several books that have exactly the type of thing I need, but I don't actually own any of them, and the internet is not being my friend here.

Okay, let's see what I can come up with not really knowing the topics involved...

This site has feminist liturgies, and some blessings like this one:
http://www.ritualwell.org/shabbat/sitefolder.2006-03-23.3610986751/primaryobject.2005-07-22.1639480922
have feminine god language (found via Internet Public Library's religion resources. www.ipl.org is not a bad place to start with net research if googling fails)
http://www.ritualwell.org/shabbat/

Here's some liturgies:

(there's some shabbat stuff but many categories listed have no content) (found via google)

This site has an incredibly annoying flashy interface but might be useful:http://jwa.

Thank you! I may be able to get some mileage out of those.

::blush:: Thank you kindly!

Let's see...

You've already been linked to Ritualwell, I see. There's probably some good stuff there.

Here are some sample pages from a Jewish Renewal prayerbook which is very feminist and quite lovely.

Here is a Shabbat morning amidah meditation created by R' Leila Gal Berner, who is a luminary in the Jewish feminist ritual world.

Alas, none of Marcia Falk's material seems to be online, which is frustrating.

Email me if you want, and let me know what kind of thing you're looking for; I can dig around on my shelves and maybe email you some stuff. (er -- this username at gmail.com will reach me)
