I hope we do the same here in the States. One can never be careful enough.
This sounds like an interesting promotion. In my Shul we run similar promotions.
Shabbos Bereshis we give out mini-globes (or maps for flat earthers)
“Purim Shabbos” where the laypeople shush the Ruv & Gabbai during leining
“Shidduch Shabbos” where single women throw candy over the Mechitza & whichever single man it hits must take them on a date.
If our numbers are correct (which they are) we see a 37% increase in attendance for these Shabbosim & a 12% increase in attendance overall.
p.s. If anyone would like help setting up these programs at their Shul, feel free to contact me.Yechiell,
It was a little joke (not to downplay the issue) but the wording of “Bring your guns to Shul…” to me sounded like something a pro baseball team would use to attract fans & sounded even funnier (to me) if Shuls also ran “promo” davenings.
It’s kinda Mel Brooks humor (like the Yiddish speaking Indian Chief in Blazing Saddles). You either appreciate it or you don’t.The way to “never again” is Teshuva, Teffila, Utzeduka Maviren es rowe Hagizeira…All the guns wont stop a Gezeira
So you’re ok with the IDF & US Military shutting down because a Gezeira is a Gezeira?
p.s. If you’re going to say no because we need to do our “Histadlush” how is bringing a gun to Shul any different?
