Shul Info: April 27 - May 4.

Hello everyone,

The schedule for the coming week follows the announcements. Please read the announcements. It's not just the usual.

• Early Friday evening davening begins this week. Mincha this Friday is at 6:45pm sharp. Please remember to count sefira at home after dark.

• Mincha-Maariv throughout the week will be at 8:05PM, preceded by Daf Yomi at 7:20PM. We would love to see you there. Why daven elsewhere?

• The shul is having a Lag B'Omer picnic this year, on Sunday May 6 from noon to 3pm, at Purvis Park behind the shul. Please, please, PLEASE leave a message at the shul office at 382-1958 or email the office at office@hjcs.org to make your reservations. Invite a friend too. The people who are preparing everything need a tally by Monday April 30 to get a sense of what they need to buy. Great food for sale and music, activities and games for the kids.

• The shul's website http://www.hjcs.org/ is up and running, with information updated constantly by the shul's webmaster, Neil Parks.

• The shul is also starting a blog, accessible via the website at http://blog.hjcs.org/ or thru http://heightsjewish.blogspot.com.

• Halachic good news: Since Lag B'Omer is on Sunday this year, one may get a haircut on Friday May 4; two days earlier, L'Kovod Shabbos. (SA OC 493:2 Rama)

• Thinking ahead to Shavuos: Of course, the shul is open Shavuos night for learning. I would love to hear from anyone who has ideas for topics for Shiurim. Please email me any suggestions you may have.

Have a Good Shabbos,

Rabbi Davidovich
