Priest needed for Friday night

For Friday night, Tree of Life Camp needs someone to (very briefly) be the Priest for our Shabbat ritual. (Unfortunately, I have something in Pittsburgh that I have to be at Friday night, so I will be gone until sometime Saturday morning / afternoon). The whole thing is very short, and should take no more than about 5 minutes, plus a little if you want to do some singing. Ideally, the person we need should:

-be Jewish
-be male (though this is optional, but our Priestess is female, so it would help for symmetry)
-Know the standard Jewish prayers over candles, wine and bread
-Be able to lead people in a song afterwards (I suggest L'Cha Dodi or Shalom Rav, but any Shabbat song will do)

The ritual is at mastros.biz/a23/smoke-fire/sabbath.rtf , if you'd like a look at it. Please let me know if you're interested.
