1st Night of Selichot for Sefardic Community in Crown Heights
Sefardic Jews worldwide begin Selichot from Rosh Chodesh Elul through Yom Kippur to commemorate the 40 days Moshe Rabbeinu went up to Shamayim to pray for Bnai Yisroel after the Chet Haeigel.
Based on this year’s calendar, the 1st Selichot is this Motzoei Shabbat and/or Sunday morning.
In Crown Heights, there are two options:
Merkaz Sefarad located at 556 Crown @1230am
Ner Menachem (Nimni Shul) on Empire between Kingston and Brooklyn, with Shachrit daily at 530am and Selichot at 630am
Cong. Merkaz Sefarad Chabad invites you to the 1st night of Selichot tonight at 12:30 with YouTube live-stream for those unable to attend in person.
