This year marks the 48th year since the inception of the Glatzer Fund and the initiation of Glatzer Memorial Weekend at Temple Emunah, an annual event that honors the memories of Anne and Nahum Glatzer, distinguished and active members of Temple Emunah. In their spirit, we bring eminent Jewish scholars to teach us and study with us.
We hope you will join us for a weekend of exploration, study, and learning together.
Temple Emunah’s Adult Education/Glatzer Committee is excited to announce that this year’s Nahum and Anne Glatzer Scholar-in-Residence is Rabbi Josh Warshawsky.
Glatzer weekend will take place on January 30-February 1, 2026 (Shabbat Shirah weekend). Save the dates, watch for details and registration and plan to spend this weekend filled with joy, music and prayer at Temple Emunah!
Rabbi Josh Warshawsky is a pray-er, gatherer, music creator, and lifelong meaning seeker.
He is the rabbi at Congregation Agudas Achim in Bexley, OH, and a nationally touring Jewish musician, song leader, composer, and teacher of Torah. Josh seeks to build intentional praying communities, and travels to synagogues and Jewish communities across the country sharing his music and teachings on prayer and meaningful living. He has released four albums of Jewish music, filled with melodies written intentionally to express the deep meaning of the words of our tradition. His latest album, “Chaverai Nevarech Vol. IV,” comes out February 6th!
Josh describes his mission and music as follows:
My mission is to help people find a spiritual and meaningful home for themselves in order to live lives filled with purpose. I am guided and motivated by my belief that human beings are spiritual seekers and meaning makers. We can find that meaning through Jewish sacred text and ritual, and in the chain of tradition passed down from generation to generation. These texts and rituals have great power to guide us as we live our lives today, if only we can seek to better understand them and make them our own. Through prayer, through song and harmony, through spirituality, through ritual, through community, and through justice and fairness, the way is illuminated and becomes clear.
Josh has a rare capacity to connect instantly with people of all ages and backgrounds in a genuine and joyful way, and he combines this with a love of Judaism, deep wells of Torah, and wonderful and creative music making. -Jack Klebanow, Music Director, Beth El in New Rochelle, NY
