Thank You to Rabbinic Candidate Rachel Safman for Acting as Rabbi This Shabbat Weekly Study after Kiddush Lunch in the Sanctuary led by Rabbi Rachel Safman

Please Welcome Rabbinic Candidate: Rabbi Rachel Safman

Rabbi Rachel Safman’s path to the rabbinate took her, quite literally, to the far side of the globe and back. Raised in a suburb of Washington D.C., Rachel was Jewishly active from a young age, teaching bar and bat students in her home congregation (Gaithersburg Hebrew Congregation) while still in high school. Rachel remained enthusiastically involved in Jewish community through her time in college (Harvard) and graduate school, where she helped This Week’s Parasha: establish a graduate and professional student group within the Cornell University Hillel. But Mishpatim when her academic career (in Development Torah: Exodus 21:1 - 30:16 Sociology) took her to Asia (Thailand and page 456 Singapore), she assumed her role in organized Jewish life would diminish. Instead, finding herself Maftir: Exodus 30:11-16 in a setting where Jewish professionals were page 523 scarce but opportunities to expand Jewish life, Haftarah: II Kings 12:1-17 plentiful, Rachel sought out avenues to expand her formal grounding as a Jewish leader, eventually enrolling in rabbinical training through the Ziegler School at the page 1277 American Jewish University in Los Angeles, where she was ordained in 2008. Since ordination, Rachel has served as the senior rabbi (sole clergyperson) of Congregation Beth El in New London, Connecticut (Conservative), introducing innovative approaches to education, ritual and keruv (outreach). She pioneered the use of live-streaming and distance-learning technologies to connect with those for whom Mark your calendar! in-person attendance is a barrier (a topic on which she presented at a recent USCJ convention), while simultaneously strengthening face-to-face relations with less active Sunday, February 23 at 11am in the Mosaic and unaffiliated members of the community.
