In reverse chronological order:
The main Shul will be used by the Elmora Shul Sefardi Minyan on Shabbos morning to celebrate Gabriel Elyaszadeh’s Bar Mitzvah. Everyone is invited to join in the tefillos and the Kiddush afterwards. Rav Teitz and I have indicated that it is halachically permissible for Ashkenazim and Sefardim to participate in each other's minyanim.
The main shul Minyan, for Shacharis only, will be taking place downstairs in the High School Beis Medrash at its regular time, 8:30AM.
Also available for davening this Shabbos are the regular hashkamah and teen minyanim. They will meet at their regular time and place.
All other minyanim and shiurim over Shabbos will proceed as usual.
We look forward to seeing you at the JEC this weekend!
