TAO – Temple Adath Or – is a community of light. A Kabbalah-based community, TAO is led by Rabbi Marc Labowitz, a visionary leader bringing his warmth, wisdom and wit to us at weekly Shabbat services.
We are so happy that this week’s special guest is Rabbi Ruz Gulko.
On the Pilgrimage Festivals – Pesach, Shavuot, and Succot, Jews traditionally “went up” to God by ascending to Jerusalem to make their sacrifices and expressing their joy and thanksgiving. On the High holidays, our tradition teaches, God “comes down” to us. What does this mean? The nearness of God is one of the most important themes of these holidays.
TAO meets at 6:00 PM on the 1st and 3rd Fridays monthly at the Old Davie School Historical Museum 6650 Griffin Rd, Davie, FL (less than 1 mile west of Griffin Rd exit on the Turnpike)
TAO North, until further notice, meets on ZOOM at 6:00 PM on the 2nd and 4th Fridays monthly. We are getting close to finalizing our Delray Beach location very soon.
All of TAO’s services are available to everyone everywhere on Facebook
