Our clergy team plays an important role in the Sholom Sprouts community, leading us in ritual and nurturing relationships with your children and family. Our cantors and rabbis help us celebrate Shabbat every week, and they educate us about Jewish holidays and values while singing, playing, and dancing with us. Their presence is a consistent thread across all lines of our programming with the intentional goal of making true connections with families and acting as a source of continuity and support in our evolving lives.
