How you join

You join only by entering your mobile number on the sign-up form at saralaslight.com and checking the box agreeing to receive text messages. Consent is not a condition of anything.

How often

Usually 3 messages each week before Shabbos (Friday morning, 30 minutes before, and 5 minutes before your time), plus the same reminders before Yom Tov, and occasionally a message on Sarala's yahrzeit (Gimmel Kislev). Message frequency varies.

Cost

The program is free. Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile plan.

Stopping and help

Reply STOP at any time to stop all text messages. You will receive one final message confirming you have been unsubscribed. Reply HELP for help, or email info@saralaslight.com.

Other

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Times are calculated for your zip code and are provided as a reminder; please follow your own minhag and your rav's guidance.
