Shabbos CandlesBring a friend, your children and grandchildren
Share the joy.


Are you looking for a meaningful and joyous Shabbat? Look no further.

 

TAO (Temple Adath Or) is the South Florida Center for Jewish Renewal. We are a warm expression of joyful Judaism that brings Judaism to the 21st Century.

 

Jewish Renewal is about breathing life and meaning into Judaism. It is a return to the mystic roots of Abraham. It teaches that when we touch the Divine within and allow That to shine through us, we achieve a life of balance, harmony and loving kindness. In its essence, Renewal helps us to access the God within.

 

TAO services are filled with joy as we sing our way through Shabbat. Prayer, meditation and movement are always a part of everything we do.

 

Join us the first and third Friday of each month. Whether you are Jewish, non-Jewish or want to feel Jewish again, you will be touched by the depth, joy and connection you will feel at our Services.

TAO's Adopted Family

Through our support of the Touch A Heart Foundation, TAO has adopted a family whom we will try to offer visits and support during the coming year.

Our "adopted" family consists of a 62 year old grandma with custody of two grandsons, a 10 and 11 year old. Grandma has MS, and on a good day uses a cane. More often she requires a walker or wheelchair. Her greatest fear is losing her home which is the only home the boys have ever known and handicap accessible for her. Their only income at this time is Social Security.

The family has a "Wish List." If you can provide any of the items on the wish list please contact Renee at the office. You could drop the items off at the office (in the afternoons), or make a donation to cover the costs and Renee will purchase.

WISH - LIST - NEW ITEMS ONLY
  • A gift certificate for shoes for the boys to either Sports Authority or Footlocker
  • Tickets to the movie theater. Closest to them would be Regal Cinema or Cinemark
  • Clothes for the boys - Pants/Shorts (size 12 and 16), Shirts (medium and large)
  • Gas cards, Publix or Target gift cards
  • Rides to and from services  
  • Socks, towels, blankets, toiletries
  • Publix card or precooked meal including beverages and paper goods
Grandma does not expect entire wish list to be granted.

We plan to visit our family throughout the holidays and throughout the year. If you are interested in being a part of one of these visits, please let Renee know at 954-888-1408 or by email at [email protected]. This is a wonderful mitzvah project and we hope each of you can participate in this mitzvah in some small or large way.

In the spirit of Tzedakah, Paulina and Rabbi Marc set up two funds at TAO - a Galia fund and an Ocean fund. A portion of these funds is used to send toys and other needed items to Jewish and non-Jewish organizations that serve children, including Jafco.

When you share your sweetness to celebrate Galia's birthday (December 6) and Ocean's birthday (June 28) and other occasions, please donate to TAO instead of generously offering toys, clothing and other gifts. In this way, children will benefit from your sweet generosity.

Paulina and Rabbi Marc will be informed that you gifted their children and performed an act of Tzedakah in their honor.

Both Paulina and Rabbi Marc appreciate the health, toys and love their children have and want to give others the opportunity to share as well. To donate, Donate to Galia or Ocean fund for this tax deductible gift.
