Para rabbinic Training Program
PARA-RABBINIC Training Program of Esynagogue
Overview and mission
This program is designed to enable Lay People to serve as assistants to rabbis or assist Congregations where there are not enough, or any Rabbis, to help them support the spiritual life of their congregations and communities.
Our Esynagogue program is designed to teach lay leaders a variety of skills to help them support communal worship, life-cycle events and educational opportunities. Participants in our program may use these skills in various ways—by serving a congregation that has no clergy; by working in an assisted living facility or adult community; or by assisting their congregational clergy.
If you have a rabbi, The para-rabbinic's role is agreed to between the Rabbi and para-rabbinic before the course, and the rabbi supervises the para-rabbinic once the course is completed. Para-rabbinics are trained in life-cycle events, but may not do weddings or conversions. Para-rabbinics may be able to conduct Shabbat morning minyans, assist in Shiva minyans, conduct Torah study, and conduct services at nursing homes and assisted living centers in the community. Many do much more in their communities because their Temples either do not have full time Rabbis or have part-time student Rabbis
Our program features a curriculum involving over twenty differnt skills, an optional annual Seminar, a Rabbi's Manual, regular comunication with Rabbis, a certfication process by a Bet Din of Conservative Rabbis. The study utilizes infomation you will be directed to on the internet, including videos made by the Ginsburgs.
This program requires a solid foundation in Jewish education. If you don't have one, take our 16 unit Introduction to Judaism course, described on the Long Distance Conversion page above. Aftr reviewing your application and calling you, we'll decide together whether it would be best for you to take that course first.
