Rabbi Michelle Robinson was ordained in 1999 as part of the first graduating class of the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies. Since then, she has been blessed to find her home at Temple Emanuel of Newton, Massachusetts. Her rabbinic passions include community building, sharing love of Jewish text and tradition, and facilitating personal connections to the beauty of prayer, particularly at Temple Emanuel’s vibrant Shabbat Alive Service each Friday night. Rabbi Robinson and her husband Mike are the proud parents of four children who remind them of God’s blessings every day.
