On hearing the bad news that is coming to us from the lands of the east, and from the center of Europe...about the concentration camps...it is imcumbent upon us ...to raise our voices, the voice of Yaakov, before our Father in Heaven to plead for mercy for them.
The Kolel Shomrei HeHomot , under the leadership of R. Akiva Sofer, calls out with this to all the residents of our land, and especially to the members of our Kolel to gather on Thursday, the 20th day of Shevat, 5713 (1943) at 2 in the afternoon...and to pour out prayer by reciting the book of Psalms as a group, and by the blowing of the shofar....and it should be the will [of G-d] that our prayers will be accepted and ... we will be brought of the trouble to relief, and from darkness to light, and to the complete redemption.... |
