Mailing List Service Felist.Com -*-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Members and Friends of Kehilas Moreshes Yaakov: The very first issue of our newsletter will be about Tisha Be'Av. This year Tisha Be'Av falls on Motzay Shabbath, which is making some difference and creating difficulties. Shabbath schedule is almost as ussual: Friday night July 27 Candle lighting 7:59pm Mincha 8:05pm Kabbalath Shabbath follows Maariv follows Saturday July 28 Shacharith 8:40am Shiur 6:15pm Mincha 6:45pm Shalosh Seudoth follows Shkiya 8:16pm Shabbath ends 9:16pm Please note the difference: Mincha is 1 hour before usual time! Tisha Be'Av schedule: Saturday July 28 Maariv 9:30pm Reading Eicha follows Sunday July 29 Shacarith 8:00am Kinoth 9:15am Mincha 7:30pm Shkiya 8:14pm Fast Ends 9:05pm Tisha Be'Av is 25 houres fast and also all rules of mourning applied. Because this year Tisha Be'Av falls on Motzey Shabbat it is differnt than last year. You cannot make any preparations for Tisha Be'Av before Shabbath ends. If you leave further than 5 minutes walking (3 minutes driving) from the shul, you got to bring slippets into shul before Shabbath. If you have low chair same rule applies. No leather shoes please! If you cannot make Shalosh Seudoth home, we will have one in the shul. However, Shalosh Seudoth MUST be finished (Birkath Amazon said) before Shkiya! And one more suggestion: drink seltzer and spring water during whole Shabbath. It will help you stay on fast. With questions, please, call Rabbi Binsky. Have an easy fast!
