Note from Rabbi Crimmings
My rabbinic journey started while working as a teacher in the religious school at Bet Shalom. At that time, I experienced what it felt like to be openly welcomed and embraced, both as a member of the teaching staff and also as a member of the congregation. The sense of community and passion for Jewish life at Bet Shalom is what inspired me to apply to rabbinical school.
My experiences at Bet Shalom stayed with me throughout my time at HUC-JIR, and I feel so blessed that my path led me back to this incredible congregation. I am honored to have the opportunity to participate in, and help lead, such a warm, vibrant, and joyful community.
Shalom, Rabbi Crimmings
