Cantor Erin Frankel will conclude her work with the congregation this spring. Her extraordinary accomplishments will have an impact for years to come. Her strategic leadership as a senior member of our clergy team, her caring touch as a pastoral presence, and her visionary transformation of our worship have all confirmed the critical importance of cantorial work. Cantor Frankel's talented approach to music and her establishment of Ani Kinor: The RS Orchestra, will serve as a foundation for our future cantorial leadership.

Our congregation will now enter the Reform Movement's cantorial placement process to seek out a new senior cantor. We are conducting our search through the Joint Cantorial Placement Commission of the Union for Reform Judaism and the American Conference of Cantors. Please direct all inquiries to kgreenwald@accantors.org.
