Rabbi Sandi Intraub is beginning her 15th year at BETC and is our Associate Rabbi. She strives to help every person feel that they belong in our community. Through her rabbinic work, support in our Religious School, and leadership of our Family Education, Mishpachah, and Adult Learning teams, Rabbi Intraub endeavors to work with clergy, staff and lay leaders to provide opportunities for study, growth, curiosity, and learning in all aspects of Judaism, using creative, accessible and interactive methods. Rabbi Intraub enjoys sharing Jewish ritual, worship, and celebrating Shabbat and holidays as ways to foster spirituality, relationships and deepen community. She feels a Jewish obligation to respond to those in need and effect change in the world with education, hands-on work, fundraising, advocacy with RAC-MA, and finds meaning in engaging in Tikkun Olam at BETC. Sandi treasures the wisdom in Jewish traditions, worship, holidays, life-cycle events, and rituals and is inspired to lead others in learning, celebration, and prayer.
Upon ordination from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in New York, Rabbi Intraub became an N.A.J.C. Board Certified Chaplain and completed a Chaplaincy Residency program at Hebrew SeniorLife.
Rabbi Intraub lives outside Boston with her wife and two sons. When she's not at BETC, she can be found enjoying motherhood, kayaking and playing tennis in Vermont, and reading. Rabbi Intraub is eager to meet you, get to know you, and engage in learning and celebration throughout the year!
