ALL Minyanim meet in our Shul’s Backyard A: The 5th of the Rambam’s 13 Principles of Faith states that Friday Night: we believe that one must only pray to Hashem and to no other being.

Tradition teaches that this “service” is prayer. It is written, serving Him with all you heart and soul (Deut. 2:13), about which the Sages said, “What is service of the heart? Prayer.” The number of prayers is not fixed in the Torah, nor is their format, and neither the Torah prescribes a fixed time for prayer. Women and slaves are therefore obligated to pray, since it is a positive commandment without a fixed time. Rather, this commandment obligates each person to pray, supplicate, and praise the Holy One, blessed be He, to the best of his ability every day; to then request and plead for what he needs; and after that praise and thank God for all the He has showered on him.1” According to Maimonides, both men and women are obligated in the Mitsva of prayer. -

Guide for Rosh Hashanah 5781/2020 Erev Rosh Hashanah ● Hatarat Nedarim (Nullification of Vows) Is Ideally Recited on Erev Rosh Hashanah
Guide for Rosh HaShanah 5781/2020 Erev Rosh Hashanah ● Hatarat Nedarim (nullification of vows) is ideally recited on Erev Rosh HaShanah. It can be done either in small socially distanced groups with masks or by video calling in to a Beit Din of three Jewish men (we will try to arrange for this setup – more details as we get closer). For those not able to do it on Erev Rosh HaShanah, it can be done at a later point, but one should try to have it done at the latest before Yom Kippur begins. ● Candle lighting should take place 18 minutes before sundown at 7:03pm. The blessing should conclude L’Hadlik Ner Shel Shabbat V’Shel Yom Tov. ● Weekday Mincha should be completed before sundown, which is at 7:21pm. First Day of Rosh Hashanah Friday Night ● An abridged Kabbalat Shabbat is recited that begins with Mizmor Shir L’Yom HaShabbat. Bameh Madlikin should also be omitted. ● Both V’Shamru and Tik’u BaChodesh Shofar are recited before the Amidah. ● Ma’ariv Amidah for Rosh Hashanah with proper insertions for Shabbos. There are a number of insertions into the Amidah that are recited throughout Aseres Yemei Teshuva (Ten Days of Repentance). ● Vayechulu is recited after the Amidah (omitting the blessing “Magen Avot”) followed by L’David Mizmor and then Aleinu. ● Kiddush for Rosh Hashanah with proper Shabbos insertions. Kiddush begins with Yom HaShishi. Shehechiyanu is recited. ● The traditional symbolic foods (simanim) are eaten on the first night together with their respective prayers (Yehi Ratzon). ● Birkas HaMazon should include the insertions for Shabbos and Rosh Hashanah. -
Yom Kippur at Home 5771
Yom Kippur at Home 5771 We will miss davening with you at The Jewish Center this year. We hope that this will help guide you through the Machzor on Rosh HaShanah from your home. When davening without a minyan, one omits Barchu, Kaddish, Kedushah, and Chazarat HaShatz, and the Thirteen Attributes of God during Selichot. There are many beautiful piyyutim throughout Yom Kippur davening as well as the Avodah service in Mussaf that you may want to include after your silent Amidah. You omit the Torah service, but you can read through both the Torah and Haftarah readings. If you would like to borrow a Machzor from The Jewish Center prior to Rosh Hashanah, please use this form https://www.jewishcenter.org/form/Machzor%20Loan%20Program If you have any questions or concerns, or if we can be of assistance to you in any way, please do not hesitate to reach out to us, Rabbi Yosie Levine at [email protected] or Rabbi Elie Buechler at [email protected].

JFREJ Ritual Toolkit for Mourning Black Lives and Police Violence
JFREJ Ritual Toolkit for Mourning Black Lives and Police Violence This toolkit is an offering of prayer, ritual, and action for mourning Black lives lost to police violence and racism. It is structured after the following Jewish phases of mourning, acknowledging the natural course of grief and bereavement: Shiva - The first seven days following the burial of the deceased. Shloshim - The first 30 days following the burial of the deceased. Yahrzeit - The anniversary of the deceased. Yizkor - A moment to remember the deceased during Jewish Holidays. The intention of this toolkit is to provide both immediate support for the bereaved as well as sustained practices to honor the memory of Black Lives lost through suggested offerings of prayer, ritual, and action. The prayers and rituals listed are offerings for Jewish communities to incorporate into their communal prayer services. Please adapt these offerings in ways that are most meaningful for your community. Shiva - What does it look like to sit shiva with another community? Shiva Prayers 1. El Maleh Rahamim with the inclusion of names of Black people lost to racism See end of this document for full text. 2. This Kaddish (with the inclusion of names of Black lives we mourn) See end of this document for full text. Shiva Rituals 1. Light a Yahrzeit candle in your home and/or communal prayer spaces. 2. Kriyah is a physical embodiment of mourning by tearing ribbon or clothing. Tear a cloth when these tragedies occur at an appropriate space in services, perhaps before reciting Kaddish or El Maleh Rahamim. Shiva Actions 1.
