Meet Rabbi Michael Satz – Rukin Rabbinic Fellow

Rabbi Michael Satz is the rabbi of Temple B’nai Or in Morristown, NJ. Ordained by HUC-JIR, the Reform Movement’s Seminary, in 2007, he has served communities in Cherry Hill, NJ, San Diego, CA and Toronto, ON, but his native St. Louis is always in his heart. Rabbi Satz studies and teaches the literature and practice of Mussar, a Jewish path of spiritual development. He also loves to play classic country songs on guitar and until a recent knee injury, practiced the Israeli martial art of Krav Maga. He is married to Rabbi Janice Elster and together they have two boys, Eitan and Ami. Rabbi Satz is looking forward to learning with this cohort of rabbis to think about how the Jewish community of the present and future can be more welcoming to all.
