Best wishes to you all for a happy and healthy New Year!

     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 you wish
to attend in order to get your individual links.  
Please register for only the services you plan to attend.

Guests, if you join TAO in the month following the High Holy Days, your ticket donation
($118 per person, $360 per family) will be subtracted from your membership dues.  
You can find our Rosh Hashanah Siddur here.

 
 


Whether you will be worshipping with us or not, memorialize your departed loved ones in the Yizkor Scroll
of Remembrance Book.  In addition to the names being displayed, on our website and in our newsletter,
special prayers for your loved ones will be recited by the Rabbis.  Please honor those who have passed.

Your continued support for our spiritual family is sincerely appreciated.  Join TAO.
