We can believe in spirituality and logic.

We can accept science and God.

We can be Rational and Religious.

Jewish wisdom provides resources for every situation and occasion. My approach to ceremonies, services, and teaching is to use these to produce the perfect experience for you and your community.

The prophet Isaiah tells us to be “a light unto the nations.” I understand this to mean to bring the wisdom of Jewish teachings and practices to everyone. I am trained as a trans-denominational rabbi- prepared to serve Jews of all backgrounds and practices. I am also able to serve Christian and Muslim interfaith groups, and I am trained as a pastoral counselor.

WEDDINGS

Officiating at weddings is one of the blessings of being a rabbi. I serve a wide variety of Jewish, interfaith, and other wonderful couples who love the Jewish style.

LIFE EVENTS

Jewish tradition includes excellent ways to take note of things that happen in our lives. Many are joyous-bar and bat mitzvahs, welcoming a new baby, celebrating an anniversary. Some offer comfort such as funerals, hospice calls, sick visits.

TEACHING

Do you have a synagogue, a church, a chavurah, or a desire for personal study? I can help with topics ranging from Torah and prayer to religion in archaeology to Kabbalah and the science of the creation of the universe. I'll be happy to work with you to create an exciting program for you and/or your group.

CEREMONIES

When I officiate, I provide people of all backgrounds and lifestyles with meaningful weddings, funerals, and other events, which are based in Jewish tradition and match the needs of modern families and friends.

SERVICES

Is the rabbi unavailable? Do you want a professional to lead services for your chavurah, minyan, Passover seder, or other event. I will provide a unique service, tailored to be appropriate and meaningful for your group.
