HJC News - Parshas Mikeitz

Tonight, December 15th, at 8:15pm, we will continue with our Friday Night Oneg and learning series, open to the entire community.
Tonight we will be meeting at the home of Boris and Rachel Kagarlitskiy, 2254 Wrenford Rd. in University Hts.  (Located near Silsby and Belvoir Road)
We hope that this will enhance your Shabbos evening as we share insights into the weekly parsha, Chanukah, and world events.

Here is the shul's page of my Chanukah Audio Classes: https://audio.hjcs.org/series/chanukah-46

Shalosh Seudos is sponsored by Hillel & Zahava Seltzer in commemoration of the yahrzeits of  Zahava's father, Gershon Adler - Hachaver Gershon ben Hachaver Gad Meir, and of Hillel's mother, Barbara Seltzer - Baila bas Harav Yekusiel Peretz.  I will speak about Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kohn, the Toldos Aharon Rebbe, whose yohrtzeit was on the 27th of Kislev. 

The band, Mekim↑, is back and has another free concert, at Milky Way restaurant, on December 16th, Motzoei Shabbos, 8:30pm to 10:00 pm to benefit Magen David Adom with inspirational modern Jewish music. Mekim↑ are Steve Baker, Joey Steiner, Andrew Byer and Zaki Setnik.

Please note that from today until late January, sunrise in Cleveland will be after 7:45am. This means that the earliest time to make brochos on Talis and Tefillin is after the starting time of our shul's weekday Shacharis.  

Classes that were postponed this week due to Chanukah resume this week. We look forward to seeing you there.

Please note that next Friday is Asara B'Teves, a fast day, with earlier times for both Shacharis and Mincha, as noted above, posted throughout the shul, and on the shul's website. The fast concludes with Kiddush at or after 5:46pm on Friday night.  For added insight on this day, here is a link to a short audio class I gave a few years ago: https://audio.hjcs.org/shiur/the-love-and-grief-of-the-tenth-of-teves-514
