Shalom Zachor and bris details will be announced when they become available.

Family Simcha? Good news to share? Please share it with your kehilla! Send in your announcements to secretary@ksy.org.il or call 999-8923 for inclusion in this newsletter.

Neilas Hachag

Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun invites you to share Neilas Hachag with Rav Haber and family.  Please bring your remaining Pesach food (and perhaps some plastics, too) and come to Shivtei Yeshurun (10A Dolev) by 18:30. Everyone is welcome. The gan playground will be available.

KSY Parnosso Project

In light of the fact that a number of KSY members and friends are currently looking for work, Rav Haber is interested in using his network to help the situation. Please assemble your CV, a generic cover letter and a short job description title (e.g., Accountant, Web designer) and send them all to Rav Haber (yhaber@torahlab.org). Rav Haber plans to reach out to his many contacts to see how people can be helped.

Gemora Chaburah

Join the Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun gemora chaburah! Chaburah chavrusas meet on Monday night at 20:45 and Friday morning at 08:45 at Ateres Shaul (1 Shvil Hagichon, corner Dolev), covering approximately three amudim per week on Maseches Avoda Zara.

Rabbi Haber gives a b'iyun shiur (halacha and aggada) Wed. nights at 20:45. The shiurim are available in MP3 format on the KSY audio page at www.ksy.org.il/audio.asp.
The chabura has its own new forum for discussion on the maseches at: http://forum.ksy.org.il/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=12

If you are interested in joining please speak with/email Rav Haber or Danny Wajnblum. Send an email to danielw@shivteiyeshurun.org if you would like a copy of the Marei Mekomos.

Choleh List & KSY Database Online

In order to make the mi shebeirach for cholim a little more efficient, KSY now maintains a list of cholim via the internet. Current names on the list can be seen at http://www.ksy.org.il/cholim.asp. Please note that names that have not been updated for more than 2 months will not be announced. You can update a name by notifying the KSY Secretary or by logging into your account and editing the older Cholim records.

Rav Haber Online

Can't get enough of the Rav's Torah? Listening to his MP3 shiurim is almost as good as being there. The Rav has given a number of thought provoking shiurim as part of his Tefilla Series and the Mesechta Avoda Zora chaburah that are available at www.ksy.org.il/audio.asp. Topics include: "What is bracha", "Krias Shema - Oneness with Hashem", "Giving Thanks", "When is my tefilla accepted", "The Goal of Olam haZeh", "Using the forces of Heaven" and many more.

Pesach Schedule

All activities will take place at Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun,
10A Nachal Dolev, except where indicated

Who's for mincha gedola?

KSY is considering starting a mincha gedola minyan during the week. If you would be interested in attending regularly, please contact Shaul Behr sbehr@sabreton.com / 054 499 4087.

KSY would like to thank the following people for their donations during the past week

• 50S62; - Anonymous

Please consider allowing us to announce your name when thanking you for your donation. Public donations tend to encourage others to follow your lead when they see the efforts of others.

Did you know? Everyone who is called to the Torah on Shabbos or Yom Tov gets one free mi sheberach. The Gabbai will then offer the Oleh l'Torah an optional 2nd mi sheberach. If one accepts the Gabbai’s offer, the custom in our Kehilla is to obligate oneself to make a modest donation. Please turn to any of the gabboim if you should have a question about this.

For information on Israel tax receipts, please contact Avraham Nadell, KSY Treasurer.

Reminder: KSY can accept US Dollar payments with a credit card via American Friends of Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun. See the donation page online: www.afoksy.com/donate

Special Tefillos

In the light of the severe lack of rainfall this winter, Rav Haber asks all of us to include the extra tefilla for rain (Va'aneinu Borei Olam) in our amida, in birkas sh'ma koleinu. The nusach for this prayer can be found in most siddurim printed in Israel, usually inside the text of the amida for shacharis, if not other tefillos. May Hashem answer our prayers!

Weekday Minyonim

Come join KSY's new 2nd minyon at 06:45 (Yishtabach 07:00). Rav Haber generally shares some Torah thoughts after davening. Start your day off on the right foot. The minyon will meet at Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun 10A Nachal Dolev through Isru chag (16-Apr-09), Starting 17-Apr-09 the 2nd minyon will return to 1 Shvil Hagichon

Daily minyon with Honeitz Hachomo at Ateres Shaul at 1 Shvil Hagichon, corner of Nachal Dolev. NOTE: Erev Pesach minyon to be held at Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun and not at Ateres Shaul.

Week beginning 12-Apr-09
