By popular demand we are introducing a new Friday Night Sephardic Plag Minyan. A plag minyan straddles a time frame that is an hour to 90 minutes before sunset, depending on the time of year. If we daven Mincha before plag, we can daven ma'ariv right after plag. In the summer months, this allows for a much longer Shabbos and a return from shul while the young children may still be awake.
The plag minyan will meet in addition to the 7pm Mincha and the sunset Mincha. Since this minyan depends on sunset, the time it meets will fluctuate with the changing sunset. For the next 6 weeks, that time is 6:45 pm. This minyan will feature a Sephardi nussach and begin at 6:30 pm with Shir Hashirim and Ketoret.
We look forward to your participation
Kol tuv,
Rabbi Allen Schwartz Rabbi Jack Varon
