My dear friends,
I have had the great honor of being asked to speak at a symposium on the atrocities of genocide.
I've been asked to speak to the responsibility of religious and spiritual leaders to speak out against the unspeakable.
It is time for all of us who are engaged in spiritual and religious life to speak up and stand up.

My friends,
If you have ever dreamed of visiting the Middle East Holy Land, and if you wanted to experience it through the lens of the heart of the three major Abrahamic faiths that were born there…a lens that fulfills the mantra of “Never instead of, always in addition to”…now that voyage of the heart is possible.
From March 4th through March 16, 2013, I will be one of the spiritual guides, along with a Catholic Priest, an Interfaith Minister and a Muslim teacher, for this Interfaith Pilgrimage and amazing journey. This is a spiritual journey in its truest sense, and is not about the geopolitics of Israel and Palestine. It is about the depth of spiritual connection to the birth energy of this very special place in the world for everyone who is Jewish, Christian and Muslim.
We will have the opportunity to visit some of the holiest places in all three faiths and spend time with the energy of this sacred land for Abrahamic faiths.
Please go online to our website and take a look at www.heartoffaithpilgrimages.com to see all the amazing places we will visit.
This is truly a wonderful opportunity. I invite you to join us.
Please write to me at [email protected], or call 212-864-0261 with any questions and/or comments about this exciting opportunity.
Blessings and great joy,
Rabbi Ross

Most Holy Land tours to Israel give you a single lens through which to experience this beautiful and complex country —you see it only through the eyes of your own faith, or through the lens of history, politics or archeology. While those are wonderful experiences—ones you may already have had—you m...

I am an independent rabbi and I love conducting weddings, baby namings and all other life-cycle ceremonies.
Whether it be traditional or modern Jewish, interfaith, same s*x, etc., it is my honor and privilege to see to it that you have the celebration that you want to have in the way you wish to have it.
If you are planning any of these rituals of passage, please take a moment to call or email to discuss the possibilities. My favorite word is, "Yes!"
Please take a moment to look at www.rabbiross.com
I am also available for pre-marital counseling as well as spiritual counceling.
I look forward to speaking with you.
Blessings and joy,
Rabbi Ross
