Why Pastoral Rabbinics?

Reb Carl

After many years as a lawyer and transformative mediator, I was ordained on January 9, 2022, as a Rabbinic Pastor through the Aleph Ordination Program. A Rabbinic Pastor is educated and trained to do the wide variety of things that all Rabbis do. But a Rabbinic Pastor places more emphasis throughout the course of his studies on the pastoral aspects of the Rabbinate like chaplaincy and pastoral counseling.

As a Rabbinic Pastor I hold that every interaction including officiating at ritual observances and services, is an opportunity for pastoral care. So I refer to what I do as pastoral rabbinics. I bring a spiritual component and my mediation background to all aspects of my work.

If you would like to book Reb Carl to speak at your congregation, facilitate a workshop, or appear at your conference or seminar, email us for information.
