Sukkat Shalom Rabbi Search Update
The Rabbinic Search Committee (RSC) has identified the next Senior Rabbi to lead our congregation, succeeding our beloved founder, Rabbi Sam Gordon, and Acting Senior Rabbi, Carlie Daniels.
With significant due diligence, including consideration of feedback from town hall gatherings and from professional staff, the RSC was fully aligned in their recommendation of Rabbi Brian Immerman to the Board of Directors, who have voted unanimously in favor.
