[HANASHIR:16024] Re: Havdalah Bat Mitzvah

[Robin Sparr <rssings...>]

Scott:
If there is to be a torah reading, I would presume they are doing 
mincha and concluding the service with Havdala (otherwise there is no 
context for a torah reading).  The mincha (afternoon) service is rather 
abbreviated (it has no Shema, for example); it typically includes 
Ashrei, Hatzi Kaddish, Avot/Gvurot and Kedusha, and the rest of the 7 
blessings included in the shabbat Tefila, ending with Shalom Rav (not 
Sim Shalom). Then Oseh Shalom or Yihiyu l'ratzon, and straight to the 
Torah service, which would be the same service used on Shabbat morning. 
  The service can be found in the older Gates of Prayer (fat blue 
version) around p.550 or so; it is also in the "Gates of Grey" toward 
the back.
Hope this is helpful.  Do feel free to call on  me if I can be of 
assistance with melodies, etc.!
warm regards,
