One update to and one clarification of information sent earlier today....

> (before [the 5:30PM] Mincha [on Shabbos], Rabbi Avrohom Herman will give a shiur for men and women in the Main Shul on "Mourning Yerushalayim - A Requisite for Jewish Survival") <

This shiur will i'y'H' begin at 4:45PM.

 

> (Please note: Havdalah should be made after the fast [or for those not fasting or breaking the fast early, before any eating or drinking] by reciting "Borei P'ri Hagafen/Hagefen" on wine or grape juice followed by the b'rachah of "Hamavdil.") <

Those not fasting (or breaking the fast early) on Tish'a b'Av should preferably use chamar m'dinah (e.g. beer [malt or alcoholic] or premium orange juice) for Havdalah rather than wine or grape juice.
