Reform Judaism announces new Rabbi role
The Movement for Reform Judaism this week announced the appointment of a Young Adult Development Rabbi.
Rabbi Benji Stanley’s role will be to provide learning and programmes for young adults, including those in mixed-faith relationships.
Rabbi Stanley, who joins from West London Synagogue, said the post would allow him to “reach out to young adults and build vibrant activities and I am looking forward to the exciting opportunities this will bring”.
MRJ’s Libby Burkeman said: “His impact at West London has been remarkable and we are looking forward to working with him.”
