The community is organizing a Machsom L’Fi (period of either no talking, or of very careful speech, certainly refraining from lashon harah) this week along with a Shabbos Shsikah (Shabbos of careful speech, and refraining from talking during davening) in the merit of the speedy recovery of Yona Menucha bas Leah Chana (Adler).
People are encouraged to sign up for as many time slots as possible to try to have as complete a schedule as possible for the Machsom L’Fi. 3 ways to sign up 1) Online spreadsheet – just fill in the slot time and name at this link 2) Email bsdreno@gmail.com 3) Text 216-701-3492 (write Machsom L’fi first in text). Please write the time(s) that you would like to select beginning now and going up until this Shabbos. Blocks of time can be as short as 15 min or several hours long. Slots in the middle of the night can be chosen if you plan to be up (sorry not on the online schedule). For now, it is okay if there are overlaps in time. Once we have the online schedule, time slots requested by email or text will be added.
Look for fliers soon with details on the Shabbos Shsikah.

This week’s parsha includes details about being honest in our business dealings. Is declaring bankruptcy to absolve one of one’s debts, considered honest according to halachah?
By Rabbi Yirmiyohu Kaganoff (RabbiKaganoff.com)
Mr. Gomel Chessed shares with his rav, Rav Chacham, the following predicament: “I loaned someone money, and I did not hassle him for payment when he told me that things were tough. Recently, I contacted him to ask if he is in any position to pay back. He replied that he was forced into bankruptcy and thereby absolved all his debts. Does he, indeed, no longer owe me for the loan?”
