Monday: Detention Hearing in Sholom Rubashkins Case

The Rubashkin family and the members of the Anash community for Pidyon Shivuyim extend their heartful request to all Anash to join us for special prayers at the Ohel this Monday, January 26th, Rosh Chodesh Shvat at 9:30 a.m. which will correspond to 8:30 a.m. in Iowa when the hearing will begin. Busses have been arranged to leave 770 at 9:00 a.m. and will return at 11:00 a.m.

The community of Postville has designated this Sunday, Erev Rosh Chodesh Shvat as a Half Day Voluntary Fast Day. The Rubashkin Family asks that anyone who would like to join in to please have in mind on Shabbos to fast half a day on Sunday.

We hope and pray that our unified prayers will be accepted on high and that Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin will see a true Geulah, and will be given his freedom.
