When after ashrei they began uvo letzion, I realised it was a minyan for tourists. During the service, some locals came into the shul, and as often happens in many shuls in Israel, went around the shul shaking their cupped hands hoping to receive money. Needless to say, they left the shul disappointed and empty handed!</span></p> <p> </p> </span></p> <p> </p>
