ONE VOICE MIXED CHORUS

Twin Cities, MN

This tallit represents all GLBT clergy and lay people serving in synagogues who are not recognized for their service and contribution to the Jewish faith. Originally used as a Bar Mitzvah Tallit in 1926, this tallit brings our history as Jewish People into the present and moves us into the future. The rainbow colored hands represent that we should hold out our hands in welcome to all people.

Contribution Story

This tallit (prayer shawl) was given in conjunction with One Voice Mixed Chorus' "Reclaiming Faith" concerts in the Twin Cities in January, 2007.
