Are there any Jewish services in southern Taiwan?

Postby Taiwan_Student » 05 Feb 2010, 13:06

Look! I'm your typical reform, Buddhist, pork-eating not so religious Jew but I still believe in a hire power and loved culture and the services. What's up! There are people of all religions here but not a couple people who would like to get together for an occasional Friday or Saturday Service. Are there not a couple people interested in getting together for a Seder.

That's my rant. I think its something to do with Jews associating with Jews in general. My Christian friends and even Buddhist neighbors are quick to invite me in and share their religion and philosophy. I'm thinking of defecting...

Sorry to nitpick, but I assume you mean "are there"?


Btw, I was surpised years ago to learn there's a synagogue in Yangon, Myanmar, of all places.

Oy Vey Boychik!...send a PM to the member known as "The Chief" for a possible lead on Shabbat services en el sud de Taiwano.

You don't mention where you are in "South Taiwan" but I'll see if I can scare up anything to relate to you.

Tainan Cowboy is on the money. PM 'the chief' and you'll find he can probably rustle up a minyan.

Or just ask him to post on the board so that anyone else who wants to know can look it up?

He's not here, though, is he? Or is he le king?

Before you lovingly craft your PM, make like any writer and consider your audience. With all the information at your disposal, is there any possibility that the recipient will open it? Would your time be better employed?

It's been a while. I've sent my PM messages but got no response. I'm about ready to defect. Or at least find some Christian/ Buddhist denomination here that doesn't prosthelytize and gives every one credit.

Do you own a bike and have you considered buying some white T-Shirts?

Bike? What kind of bike? A bicycle? Couldn't be Morman, they wear the old IBM look with a bicycle, not a T-shirt.

Are you refering to a Harley or a Taiwan Biker gang version, a 50/100 CC Scooter? But white T-shirts... what sect are you refering to?
