Rabbi Elly Krimsky
Cell Phone: 203-918-5870
The congregation welcomes our new rabbi, Rabbi Elly Krimsky, who took the pulpit of the Young Israel of Stamford on September 1, 2009.
Originally from Boston, Rabbi Krimsky started his rabbinic career in Potomac, Maryland, where he was for eight years the Assistant Rabbi at Beth Sholom Congregation. In 2005, Rabbi Krimsky moved to the Tri-State area to be the Assistant Director of the Office of Jewish Career Development and Placement at Yeshiva University.
Rabbi Krimsky and his wife Yocheved were looking for a special community and on prior visits were attracted by the warm and inclusive nature of the shul. The proximity to the City made Stamford also an ideal fit: the Rabbi will be commuting to Washington Heights for his job at YU, but will be available for teaching, communal involvement, and pastoral needs in the evening and weekends and always reachable by phone or email.
The Krimskys looks forward to getting to know every member of the congregation and engage the community in learning and chesed. Their excitement to be part of our community and to lead a vibrant organization is contagious and has already charged the congregation with new energy.
Rabbi Naftali Wolfe, who leaves the position to pursue other interests, is staying in the community and plans to continue giving his much acclaimed Wednesday shiur on Sefer HaChinuch.
