Candle lighting 20 minutes before sunset, the local custom. Calculated by Hebcal for the city centre; your shul may differ by a minute or two.
A calendar file with candle lighting, havdalah and the chagim for the coming year. Import it once; re-import next year.
Times are for Efrat, at 20 minutes before sunset as in the Efrat council's 5786 halachic times. Some calendars use 30 minutes, and Gush yishuvim may keep their own custom: follow your shul.
