Full Schedule
The full Mizrachi Bayit schedule for this month's holidays is available here.

 

Eruv Tavshilin Reminder
As a reminder, performing Eruv Tavshilin will enable you to properly prepare on Yom Tov for Shabbat. A primer of Eruv Tavshilin may found here.

 

Membership Dues
Your membership dues keep the lights on and ensures that our shul stays in operation. We have been holding the line on costs so membership is still just $250 for a single person and $500 for a family. If this is difficult for anyone, please talk to Jerrold Landau for a discount. Dues can be paid by cheque made out to Mizrachi Bayit and given to Morty, or online through Canada Helps.

 

Halachot for Sukkot: Rain and Bees (and More)
When can we make kiddush on sukkot? How much should we eat in the sukkah? What should we do if it rains or if we're attacked by a swarm of hungry bees? Rabbi Katchen has compiled this list of basic sukkot-related halachot in order to provide answers to our most common halachic questions at this time of year.

 

Sukkah Hop
Please join us for the annual Mizrachi Bayit sukkah hop! Fun, games, snacks and sukkahs! Sunday October 8th at 2pm (rain date October 9th). Please RSVP to karma_gordon@yahoo.com if you'd like to join the hop or are interested in hosting in your sukkah.

 

Kids' Program Needs Your Help
A few teens have recently signed up to lead our kids' program on a part-time basis – and we would like to thank Rachela Smith, Meira and Sara Rotenberg, and Sarah and Marty Lebi for signing up! That said, we are still looking for more kids' program leaders. Please talk to your teenagers about becoming a part-time leader of the Mizrachi Bayit kids program. Get paid to help out on an occasional basis! Perfect for busy teens. Contact karma_gordon@yahoo.com for more information.
 

Kiddush This Week
On Simchat Torah, there will be a kiddush-lunch after mussaf in honour of the new executive. All paid Mizrachi Bayit members are invited. Special thanks to Les Lightstone for sponsoring this kiddush.
