Congregation Emanu-El in Wichita, Kansas, seeks to hire a full-time dynamic, engaged and ordained Rabbi to lead our unaffiliated Reform congregation comprised of approximately 110 families. The new Rabbi will replace Rabbi Michael Davis who will be retiring at the end of July, 2025, after serving the Congregation for 30 years.
The Rabbi will be expected to conduct weekly Friday night and Saturday morning Shabbat services along with a piano accompanist, as well as services for the High Holidays, together with a cantorial soloist, and major holidays throughout the year. Congregation Emanu-El’s Rabbi is responsible for managing congregant life-cycle events including Bar/Bat Mitzvah preparation, conversions, and ministering to the members of the community in all stages of their lives.
As a teacher/scholar, the Rabbi will also partner with the Jewish Community School that meets twice a week for children 5-16, in addition to offering a range of adult education courses throughout the year. Historically our Rabbi represents Congregation Emanu-El within the broader community and may offer educational opportunities for non-Jews to learn about our faith.
In sum, we expect to hire a Rabbi who will bring their energy and passion to leading Congregation Emanu-El in the years ahead. Total compensation package will be in the range of $85-105,000.
