Enspire: NYC’s On Demand Millennial Rabbi Rebecca Keren Eisenstadt

She worked with synagogues in Manhattan and officiated weddings, Jewish events, funerals, and holidays.

Her mother, Merry Madway Esisenstadt was her role model and inspiration. Her mother taught her more about being a rabbi and educator than just her studies. Rebecca’s mother was self-motivated and pursued her passions of Jewish learning and the Hebrew language. Her experiencing Jewish summer camps and youth groups in Israel brought her joy. She immigrated to Israel and learned to speak Hebrew when coming back to the States to marry her father her mother became a journalist for the Jewish press. She told stories of the Jewish world such as schools, community centers, leaders, social events Synagogues and Yeshivas, and so much more. Anything pertaining to Israel, Jewish, and the US she wrote. Her ability to be recognized for all her hard work and storytelling is what prompted Rebecca to do the same with her own studies and career.
