GIFT OF THE HEART MEMBERSHIP (in lieu of ‘High Holiday guests’)
Unlike previous years, we will not be ‘selling’ High Holiday access for non-members – we ask that everyone who wishes to take part in Or Tzion’s High Holidays this year become a member of our congregation with a Gift of the Heart Commitment. Your contribution is solely up to you and what you are comfortable contributing; there is no amount too large or too small to be part of our kehillah kedoshah, our holy community. For more information and to make your commitment if you have not already done so, please go to: Gift of the Heart
Gift of the Heart replaces traditional membership dues structure and religious school tuition. Every congregant household who donates an annual financial contribution gains access to all of the High Holiday services and Youth Programming as one of the benefits of their membership.
If you have not yet made your Gift of the Heart Commitment, please complete this important first step at:
If you are unsure if you have made a Gift of the Heart Commitment, please contact Pam at bookkeeper@congregationortzion.org
All of Or Tzion’s High Holiday programming will be broadcast online this year. In order to receive the Zoom link(s) for your access to all of the main services, youth services and other holiday events, please complete the HIGH HOLIDAY ONLINE REGISTRATION.
