Rabbi Linder

Join us for a meaningful and heartfelt evening next Friday as Rabbi John Linder shares his farewell Shabbat message with the Temple Solel community. This is an opportunity to come together, celebrating Rabbi Linder’s 17 years as Temple Solel’s Sr. Rabbi. There will also be a delicious, hearty oneg before & after services to visit with old & new friends!

This special service will be enriched by the participation of two distinguished guests who have been instrumental in Rabbi Linder’s rabbinic journey. Join us in welcoming them to Temple Solel. 

 Rabbi Ronne Friedman – Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Israel (Boston), longtime mentor, and dear friend of Rabbi Linder’s. Rabbi Friedman’s wisdom, guidance and friendship helped launch our rabbi for rabbinic school and he continues to be a North Star in his life.

 Rabbi Annie Villarreal-Belford – Editor at CCAR Press and a Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion classmate of Rabbi Linder’s. They have been cherished colleagues and friends within a small HUC-JIR rabbinic hevruta that has sustained them for 22 years.
