Date of Bar Mitzva/Afruf/Shabbos Sheva Brachos
Please note:
1. Ohr HaTorah attempts to give all available aliyos and kibbudim to a Bar Mitzvah/other simcha family unless there is another simcha or yahrtzeit in which case an equitable division of aliyos and baalei tefilah will be determined by the Gabbaim and the Rav.
2. Guest baalei tefilah must lead davening according to the minhagim, nusach and taam of our kehilah:
Ohr HaTorah maintains a yeshiva style davening with singing only at kel adon and kedusha on Shabbos Morning and only lecha dodi Friday night. (Notably, we do not sing Eitz Chaim when the Sefer Torah is returned (nor do we sing when the Sefer Torah is taken out.)
The baal tefilah should wait for the Rav before beginning Chazaras Hashatz or Kaddish at Maariv.
Kabbalas Shabbos begins at the Bimah and, following a D'var Torah from the Rav before Maariv, the baal tefilah leads Maariv from the amud.
The baal tefilah pause between each stanza of kel adon and lecha dodi so that they can be recited responsively.
Carelbach style davening or Chazanus style davening is not our minhag.
Shochen Ad is at 8:55 am.
The Rav speaks after the Sefer Torah is returned, before Mussaf.
We do not say A'nim Zemiros or Yigdal/Adon Olam
[The Gabbaim will attempt to remind any guest baalei tefilah about all of these things, but please keep these in mind when selecting baalei tefilah and remind your guests, if possible.]
3. All baalei tefilah and kibbudim are subject to the discretion of the gabbaim and the Rav.
4. Baalei tefilah and those receiving kibbudim should wear a jacket, tallis, and closed toe shoes.
5. It is our minhag to refrain from giving a father and son or two brothers consecutive aliyos. The same applies for hagbah and gelilah. Please keep that in mind when filling out this form.
Please fill in the name of the person you'd like to receive each kibbud below (
