Goat Yoga @ Tucson Jewish Community Center
Oct 8 @ 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm
Our mission is to create awareness and strength in the body, focus and curiosity of the mind with the addition of our goats to facilitate animal therapy. The goats help to further release stress, lift your spirits (oxytocin) and lower stress hormones (cortisol levels).  Join us for a joyous time laughing and interacting with our family of goats. Our class is great for beginners or experienced Yogi. Our goal is you leave with lifted sprits and energy of wellbeing.
Bring your own mat or a towel. Mats available for rent for $5 paid directly to Goats of Tucson (GOT) Yoga.

Goat at Yom Kippur Family Services (No Kidding!) @ Temple Emanu-El
Oct 9 @ 8:30 am – 10:00 am

During Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, repentance is achieved by prayer, making amends, and fasting, but in ancient times, repentance involved a goat. The High Priest would take two goats, sacrifice one as a sin offering, and lay hands on the other, the “scapegoat,” transferring all the peoples’ sins to the animal. That second goat would be sent off into the wilderness. At our service, children will have an opportunity to whisper their transgressions into the ear of a goat, which will be sent back home. No animals will be harmed in the process.

ASL interpretation is also available at this service.

Temple Emanu-El’s popular “Be Our Guest” program already offers visitors and guests open access to High Holy Days services. Just call the Temple office at (520) 327-4501 to reserve your admission cards and (for security reasons) be prepared to show a photo ID. No financial contribution or commitment to membership will be required of anyone who has not previously taken advantage of this program. Guests of the Temple may contribute as their hearts dictate and their pocketbooks allow.
