HJC News - Lech Lecha

Remember to turn your clocks back an hour on Motzoei Shabbos before going to sleep.

With the end of Daylight Savings Time, Mincha will now be much earlier. 5:05pm this coming week.  If you are able to help us maintain our daily minyan, we will be grateful.  If you are at work at that time, or you have already told us that you can't make it for whatever reason, there is no need to tell us again.  I'm just putting it out there for those who don't have other obligations. Thank you

This Shabbos afternoon, I will speak about Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel, the Rosh Yeshiva of the Mir Yeshiva in Yerushalayim, whose ninth Yohrtzeit was yesterday.

HJC Torah: Where to locate the Embassy (10m 28s)

Hello friends,

Here is the most recent talk,entitled "(Not) the obvious choice - Where to locate the Embassy", in which I discuss the nature of Emuna in Hakadosh Baruch Hu's plan for us, even when other options seem better to our point of view; His choice of famine-prone Eretz Cnaan as the promised land, His Embassy on earth, as opposed to the obviously more prosperous Mitzrayim.

As usual, feedback is always welcome.

PS If you can make it to Mincha-Maariv at 6:10pm this week, we'd appreciate it.

HJC Mincha-Maariv today 6:10pm

Hello everyone,

Mincha-Maariv at HJC tonight is at 6:10pm.

A number of our regulars have told me that they cannot make it tonight, each for his own reason.  

So even if you usually daven elsewhere, the shul, and I, would appreciate it if you could help us out tonight. 6:10pm

When the clocks change next week, things will get tougher. So please keep us in mind.

Thank you
