HJC Important Announcements - Shabbos Nachamu

Hello everyone,

 

Please pay attention to the following announcements:

 

There will be a Ladies' Shalosh Seudos held at our home, 14385 Washington Blvd., this Shabbos, tomorrow,  at 7:30pm. 

 

The shul is having its biennial meeting this Sunday, July 29, at 9am.  At the meeting, the nominating committee will present nominations for the Board and Officers for the next two years.  Please plan to attend.

 

The time for Shacharis from Monday through Friday is being changed to 6:45am.  It used to be 6:55am.  Starting this Monday July 30, it will now be 6:45am.  The pre-Shacharis Gemara Shiur in Masechta Sanhedrin is still at 6:15am and is not being moved back. 

 

I will be going away after the Annual meeting for a few days.  I will be returning sometime this Wednesday, August 1.  I will not have guaranteed access to email during that time. The shul office has my cell phone number in case of urgent necessities that require my personal attention. 

 

Have a Good Shabbos,

 

Rabbi Davidovich

Clarification

I recently mentioned my discomfort at saying the Tefilla for the Medina.  However, I have still been saying it.  People wonder why. 

 

I continue to reluctantly say it only because my intention in pronouncing the words of the prayer is that the state be blessed by an infusion of Wisdom from On High to its leaders that they abandon the suicidal paths they have taken in the last several years.  Even Rabbi Schur Z"L pronounced the words that ask God to shine His light and wisdom on the Land's leaders, ministers and advisers.  His change from 'Medinas Yisrael' to 'Eretz Yisrael' did not change that.  I am in full agreement with Rabbi Schur's sentiments when he made that change when he witnessed the insanity of the post-Oslo era.  Some great men have opined that the inherent mechanism of the State is corrupt and is undeserving of prayer on its behalf.  I cannot pass judgment like that without some Ruach Hakodesh (Divine Inspiration) of my own.  So in the meantime, I intend for my prayer to be in the vein of a prayer one would recite for a chronically sick and gangrened body that for better and for worse is in control of the Holy Land, no more and no less.

A black day for Eretz Yisroel

The inner rot of the State

This explains why I don't like saying the "Tefila LiShlom Hamedina", despite the fact that I take the words "Reishis Tzemichas Geulaseinu" out.
