Our Permanent Rabbi Search

Our Search Committee has begun searching for a permanent Rabbi who will succeed Rabbi Gottlieb, our Transitional Rabbi, who will be with City Shul through June 2025.

We’ll be working with the Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR), which helps Reform synagogues and organizations find and hire Rabbis and Cantors. They have a specific process outlined here: Handbook of Placement Procedures for Congregational Search Committees and Rabbis in Search.  We expect to post an ad in September 2024 for a position that will begin in July 2025; this timing works well with CCAR’s annual cycle.

On June 26th, the Transition Task Force and Search Committee held an online Listening Circle, where City Shul members answered this question:  "What would you like members of the Search Committee to know as we look for our next spiritual leader?"  Another Listening Circle will be scheduled for September 2024.
