Zoo Minyan this shabbos -- and next shabbos

We'll be gathering for davenning, lunch, shmoozing, singing, etc., this Saturday at Deborah and Shalom's house. Volunteers for leyning, leading, davenning treats, torah schlepping, and the famous Zoo Minyan veggies are very much appreciated – write back to info@ZooMinyan.org.

Or use the self-service leyning spreadsheet to sign up.

And next shabbos (Dec 19), we'll be meeting east of the park for Kabbalat Shabbat, dinner, more singing, etc. Details to come in next week's Zoo Mail. Final plans will be worked out next Tuesday evening – join in person or by conference call. Write back to Fridays@ZooMinyan.org – or check out our Google calendar and all sorts of other goodies here at our new website.

Thanks go to all who have helped with polishing our Amidah text – now with fewer typos, all the seasonally-appropriate inserts, and (drum-roll please) a draft English translation. The latter will be handed out this shabbos for use during davenning, and then to take home for suggestions and improvements. As always, huge thanks go to Howard (yes, White) for making this project happen.
