Due to graduate school or finding a place to start a family, 20- and 30-somethings aren\u2019t staying put and, therefore, are looking for ways to find Jewish meaning that they can bring with them on their respective journeys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Cherney consults with these Jews about how to incorporate Judaism into their lives, whether through lighting Shabbat candles weekly, weaving in Jewish traditions at an interfaith wedding or finding new ways to celebrate Jewish holidays.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">She asks her clients questions that cause them to reflect on what they want from their Judaism: What is their Jewish identity today? What are their Jewish values? What were the parts of Judaism that they grew up with that drew them to Judaism in the first place?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">As part of Tribe 12\u2019s 2023 fellowship cohort, Cherney hopes to hone in on the needs of the Philadelphia Jewish community to better serve her clients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">Much like the community members Cherney has worked with since TacklingTorah became a nonprofit in 2019, the rabbi had to find her Jewish voice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s4\">Raised as a Reform Jew in Long Island, New York, Cherney loved<br \/>\nbeing Jewish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">\u201cMy rabbi was my role model,\u201d<br \/>\nshe said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Cherney taught kindergarten through second grade at her childhood synagogue Temple Beth David\u2019s religious school, even when she was still in high school. The synagogue was her \u201csecond home\u201d and the birthplace of her dream to become a rabbi.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">It was only when she left for college at Brandeis University that she realized the path to her dream would have hurdles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cDay one at Brandeis, I met Jews that were different from myself,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd I immediately felt like my lifelong dream of becoming a rabbi was already being questioned by Jews who were more observant and weren\u2019t as accepting of women rabbis.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">At one point, another Jewish woman approached Cherney and told her she couldn\u2019t become a rabbi because she was a woman. Cherney got to know LGBT Jews and Jews married to non-Jews, who did not have strong or positive connections to a synagogue Jewish community.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">But when presented with challenges about Jewish inclusion and the future of Jewish communities, Cherney searched for answers. After graduating with degrees in sociology and women and gender studies, Cherney worked as a community organizer at Keshet, a nonprofit advocating for LGBT Jews; she spent time as a programming assistant at Congregation Beit Simchat Torah in Manhattan, one of the country\u2019s largest LGBT synagogues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In 2012, Cherney matriculated at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College in Wyncote on her quest to become a rabbi. After she was ordained in 2018, she took a fellowship at the 92nd Street Y in New York, focusing on innovations in Judaism and its crossover with entrepreneurship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In Cherney\u2019s words, rabbis are \u201cconstantly in the work of making connections for people, creating opportunities for people to engage and thinking up new ideas with their community.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">By the time she founded TacklingTorah a year later, Cherney was focused on making Judaism truly accessible to any person who wanted to engage with it.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Cherney frequently reflects on the words of medieval rabbi Rav Kook: \u201cThe old becomes new, and the new becomes holy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">By catering to the needs and interests of young Jews with diverse identities and interests, TacklingTorah combines ancient rituals and values with 21st-century lifestyles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019m out here trying to do anything new,\u201d Cherney said. \u201cI\u2019m just trying to do it in a way that reaches those people who feel like they haven\u2019t been able to be a part of a community before.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>srogelberg@midatlanticmedia.com<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just as many Gen Z and millennial Jews can be found outside of synagogue walls, Rabbi Elyssa Cherney wants people to know that holiness can be found outside those walls, too.
