The initiative: “Shabbat Moriah”
Date:
Parshat Vyetze - 11/17/07
Prior to Shabbat:
The media will notified that all Jewish congregations will be praying the Musaf service outdoors to show our anger and sorrow over the continuing destruction of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem. The media will also be informed that while no interviews can take place on the Shabbat, they are invited to come and film the outdoor services.
On Shabbat:
1 Every Rabbi will speak to his congregation about the great destruction and desecration that is happening to the Beit Hamikdash.
2 Every congregation will doven Musaf outside in the streets.
The Goal:
To bring home a very strong message to the Jewish People and to the world at large.
We cannot sit in comfort in our Minor Temples, while the Great and Holy House of the Lord in Jerusalem is burning.
