A Message From Our Director Rabbi Sandy Zisser

January 16, 2019 By Patrick Beaulier

Rabbi Sandy Zisser is the director of Pluralistic Rabbinical Seminary.

At the Pluralistic Rabbinical Seminary, we are molding future rabbis for the future of Judaism.

Currently, more than 50% of American Jewry are unaffiliated. Once it was a given that Jews were active members of synagogues, now for too many it is not a priority to even be a member. Each day it seems that Judaism is being torn apart from within by conflicts between the different Jewish movements. This doesn’t have to be the future of Judaism. I believe that the Jewish people are better than that. We can unite and use our differences to make us stronger, and not fragmented.

Pluralistic Rabbinical Seminary is the only truly pluralistic rabbinical seminary where all branches of Judaism can come together. Our rabbis and Jewish educators have been classically trained and represent all of the major movements in Judaism. At Pluralistic Rabbinical Seminary, we all are working for the common goal: to train rabbis who will strengthen the Jewish people through innovation and forward thinking, while servicing both affiliated and unaffiliated Jews equally.

Do you think you have what it takes to make a difference in the Jewish community, both locally and globally? If so, I encourage your interest in becoming a rabbinical student at Pluralistic Rabbinical Seminary. I invite you to read through our website and become familiar with what we have to offer. You will find a very diverse community of learners and educators at our seminary, and a unique approach to education. Together we can change the face of Judaism.
