Formerly known as the "Rabbinical Services Department," the ISJL's Spirituality service area exists to serve the smallest Jewish communities in our region - specifically, individuals and congregations without any local full-time clergy.

We serve these communities by:
  • Having ISJL rabbis and staff available to answer questions and connect communities and individuals with Jewish life
  • Putting our clergy on the road to lead Shabbat and holiday worship
  • Offering virtual preparation and in-person officiation for lifecycle moments such as b'nei mitzvah, weddings, and conversions
  • Providing free interactive text study opportunities over Zoom
  • Streaming services and seder celebrations
  • Sending a free weekly "bima-ready d'var" (sermon-ready-to-go!) called Taste of Torah
  • And more! 

To learn more about the ISJL Spirituality division, or connect with our rabbi, email us anytime. You can also sign up for Taste of Torah, Meet Our Rabbis, and learn more about our guest-clergy program Rabbis on the Road (currently on hiatus due to COVID, although our staff rabbi has resumed in-person visits).
