Temple Beth Torah, a reform congregation in Fremont, is pleased announce Rabbi Sarah Weissman as the new rabbi of Temple Beth Torah beginning July 1, 2024. Rabbi Weissman has years of experience as a pulpit rabbi and a wealth of knowledge to share with us.
Rabbi Sarah was born and raised in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She attended Amherst College in Massachusetts and graduated summa cum laude in 2003 with a degree in religion. In 2008, Rabbi Sarah was ordained at the New York campus of Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. As a student, she worked as a teaching and research assistant to Dr. Eugene Borowitz, one of the leading theologians of the Reform movement.
Previously, Rabbi Sarah served as assistant/associate rabbi at Congregation Beth Am in Los Altos Hills from 2008-2024, where, in addition to her pastoral and pulpit duties, she oversaw the adult education program and caring committees.
She currently serves on the Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR) Ethics Committee, which ensures that Reform rabbis abide by the highest standards of ethical conduct.
Rabbi Sarah and her husband, Eric Weissman, are proud parents of a son, Maverick.
Please join us in welcoming Rabbi Sarah to our community. Shabbat services take place weekly on Friday evenings at 7:30 p.m. Rabbi Sarah’s first Shabbat service will be on Friday, July 5, 2024.
