Memorial Service

Dear Friends:

Jews across the globe as well as in Israel are still in shock while we mourn the brutal murder of the 5 members of the Fogel family from Itamar, even as most of the outside world is ignoring this barbaric act of terrorism. We need to express our grief through words of chizuk, tefillah, tzedakah, and solidarity with Israel in the face of ever-growing global apathy at the spilling of Jewish blood.

Please join us this Thursday afternoon, Ta'anit Esther, between mincha and ma'ariv, as we gather for a memorial service at Young Israel, co-sponsored by Young Israel and Torah MiTzion Kollel. We will begin with mincha at 6:30pm (note change in time!), followed by the program, and conclude with ma'ariv at the end of the fast, at 7:45pm.

Thank you.

Besorot Tovot.

Sincerely,

Rabbi Shulman

Notes on Davening

  • We use the RCA Artscroll Ashekenazi siddur. Our baalei tefilla use either the Sephardic or Ashkenazi havarah, depending on their personal preferences.
  • Our minhagim generally follow the Luach Ezras Torah.
  • For Shabbos/Shabbat candlelighting times and exact times for mincha, please see the bulletin.
  • On days school is not in session (summer and Chol Hamoed) there may be an additional Shacharis/Shacharit Shacharit minyan at 8 am; check the announcements.
  • Legal Holidays are New Year's Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and December 25th.
  • On weekdays when the Torah is read, Shacharis/Shacharit follows the Monday-Thursday schedule.
  • The actual algorithm for weekday mincha is 20 minutes before the earliest sh'kia for that week, rounded up to the next multiple of 5 minutes. The actual algorithm for mincha on erev Shabbos/Shabbat is candlelighting time, rounded down to the previous multiple of 5 minutes.
