#ma'ariv

[garlic-and-cloves]

So, I've ended up in a position where I'm leading Kabbalat Shabbat, Ma'ariv and maybe also Mincha next month, none of which I actually know, for an event because I'm in charge of religious education for our youth group and no one else knows it either. Does anyone have any resources? Recordings maybe? I can only find cantor versions which are not helpful. (My shul is Conservative and entirely ley-lead. I'm not entirely sure which tunes we use as Kabbalat Shabbat is only every other month or so for some reason)

Tonight I learned (the hard way) that I really need to pray Ma'ariv before taking my bedtime meds.

The middle of the Amidah is the absolutely worst time for them to start working

I'm currently converting to Judaism. I can't figure out if I'm supposed to go to the morning/evening minyan or not. Do I or do I not?

Further deterioration in relations between Israel and the United States downplays the chances that the Americans will try to curb this European action. Maybe the opposite is true. According to various diplomatic sources, the Americans have actually released the reins on Europe and are encouraging Europe to intensify its operations against the continuation of Israel’s settlement policy in the territories.

Ma'ariv, quoted in MondoWeiss.net on new proposed banking sanctions. Good to learn that Europe isn’t actually powerless, contrary to neoconservative belief
