Rabbi Chaim Weiner

Rabbi Weiner is a graduate of the prestigious Jerusalem Fellows Program of the Mandel School in Jerusalem. As a member of the Va'ad Halacha [Law Committee] of the Masorti Movement in Israel, he published several Teshuvot [Legal Responses]. He followed Dr. Louis Jacobs as the Rabbi of the New London Synagogue, in London, England
Rabbi Weiner has played a prominent role in the development of the Masorti Movement in UK. He directed the Masorti Teenage Centre in London for 5 years. He played an important role in the NOAM Youth Movement in its early years, and help in establishing the popular NOAM summer camps. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Masorti Bet Din in the United Kingdom, and in its development into the European Masorti Bet Din. He plays a key role in the Assembly of Masorti Synagogues in Great Britain, and is the Masorti Movement representative on cross-communal forums. He has regularly visited small developing Masorti communities across Europe, and is in regular contact with all the Masorti rabbis across the continent.
In January 2005, Rabbi Weiner became the Director of the European Masorti Bet Din (a part-time position). He will also be providing rabbinic support to small developing Masorti communities in Europe. This opens a new and exciting chapter in Rabbi Weiner's career. We wish him success in his new position.
