     HIGH  HOLY  DAYS 

 

As we live each day in a very different world around us, we hope this message finds you and
your loved ones healthy and well.  In re-imagining our collective experience for this High Holy Days
season, the health and safety of our community live in tandem with our deep desire to pray together,
and the need for connection remains.  
Please join Rabbis Marc and Phillip Labowitz and our TAO
community as we come “Together As One” to worship virtually at our High Holy Day Services
with a shared sense of renewal and hope for the coming year.  

Please join us as a Guest (suggested donation is $118 per person, $360 per family) or as a Member
on Rosh Hashanah Day 1 – Saturday, September 19, Rosh Hashanah Day 2 – Sunday, September 20,
and then again for Kol Nidre on Sunday, September 27 and Yom Kippur on Monday, September 28. 
Members and guests, it is necessary to register for each service
in order to get your individual links.

TAO’s  SOUL  EXPRESSION

How soulful is our TAO Community you ask?  Let us count the ways…..

 
We are launching a new campaign to search out talented individuals who can send us recorded video of their specific gift.  This can include music, poetry, short story, prayer – anything artistic.

 
We hope to incorporate these videos in our upcoming programming.  

The video should be no longer than 2-3 minutes for a song, poem or prayer and 5-6 minutes for a short story.

 
Please contact us prior to making the video and we will give you the exact specifications.
 
Looking forward to seeing some amazing, soulful talent on screen…..
