Candle lighting

1^st night of Sukkot                          September 29         7:00pm   

A note about candle lighting on the 2^nd day of a holiday: Jewish tradition says that while we are not permitted to light a fire on a yontuv, we are permitted to transfer a fire on yontuv.  This is important for candle lighting on the 2^nd day of a holiday (2^nd night of Sukkot and Simhat Torah).  Prior to the beginning of the 1^st day of a holiday, you should light a yahrzeit candle so that after dark on the 2^nd night of a holiday, you can light your yontuv candles from the yahrzeit candle.  If you have any questions, please contact Rabbi Rubenstein.
