FROM THE CHAIR

Rabbi Gershon Silins joins TLSE as our full time Rabbi

Iam delighted to report that Rabbi Cantor Gershon Silins has agreed to accept the appointment as full time Rabbi of TLSE with effect from 1st April.

Rabbi Gershon has been with us since the beginning of December as our part time, interim Rabbi and in that short period has fully engaged with the Trustees in our commitment to take TLSE forward.

Members of our community who have met with Rabbi Gershon either at services or on other occasions since his initial appointment cannot help but be impressed by his enthusiasm and dedication.

Rabbi Gershon’s role will not purely be to lead our shabbat and other services. As our Rabbi, he will have primary responsibility for both pastoral duties and education for adults and young people.

Together with the Trustees, I look forward to working with Rabbi Gershon to continue to develop TLSE. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions concerning this appointment.
