- Opening call to attend Mincha Maariv
Rabbi Shapiro. I would like to be מעורר the people about coming to shul for Mincha Maariv. Lately, the last few days, we'd have problems for a minyan to Mincha Maariv. One day we didn't even have a minyan at all. And I know people are busy, and there are still some people who are uncomfortable coming in a public place, even though we keep strictly to the guidelines. But some people still feel uncomfortable, but anybody who is able to come, we're urging to come. There were a few months that the shul was closed, and everybody was waiting for the moment when will the minyan come back, when will we be able to daven with a minyan again and come back to shul. And when it's back, we have to try to give the chizuk for oneself that he should daven with a minyan, and also the chizuk for the shul. So please, anybody who is able to come, please come to the minyanim of Mincha Maariv.
