Dear Community,

Elul is the 40 day mark before Yom Kippur! 

The Aish LA community-wide learning will be:

The Power of Teshuva - Rabbi Heshy Kleinman
"Effective and Enduring Teshuva in 5 Minutes a Day"

We will begin Rosh Chodesh Elul, August 18^th and b'ezras HaShem finish by Yom Kippur.

You can sponsor an individual book for $10 or donate 10 books for $100 and keep one for your family - a great way to honor a loved one’s yahrzeit or to show appreciation for our community.

Effective and enduring teshuvah - in 5 minutes a day!

Rabbi Heshy Kleinman, who changed the way tens of thousands of Jews pray through the bestselling classics, Praying With Fire, Praying With Fire 2, and Yearning With Fire, now shows us how to truly take advantage of this powerful gift, teshuvah. In only five minutes a day, we will learn:

- The abundant benefits of teshuvah
- Strategies to clear the path to repentance
- The laws of teshuvah
- Techniques to ensure that our repentance lasts

We can improve our lives as we draw closer to and reconnect with Hashem. The Power of Teshuvah will show us how.

Thank you!

This shiur is being given as a zechus for a refuah shleyma for Pinchas Yechezkel ben Bryna Rochel (Howard Witkin).

-Please note the following correction to the Halachos of Tisha Bav that were sent out earlier this week:

Immediately after the fast it is permitted to bathe normally, do laundry, wear freshly laundered clothes, and listen and play music.

 In regards to consumption of wine and meat, most opinions are stringent not to do so until Monday morning.

Birkei Yosef / Shlo permit eating meat and drinking of wine after the fast 

Rav Tuchechinsky The minhag in Jerusalem is to keep all the restrictions until Monday morning

Thank you!
