Herzlia-Adas Yeshurun is pleased to announce that Rabbi Yossi Benarroch will serve as our cantor and Scholar in Residence for all High Holy Day services this year. He and Rabbi Ari Ellis will conduct High Holy Day services that are explanatory and meaningful, with interactive discussion and study groups offered throughout the day.

Complimentary babysitting, junior congregation, and children’s and teen’s programming will provide an opportunity for thoughtful reflection and spiritual renewal for all participants.

Rabbi Benarroch was born in Tangiers, Morocco, and raised in Winnipeg.  Following graduation from Joseph Wolinsky Collegiate, he received a Bachelor degree in Phys. Ed and Biology, and a teaching certificate from the University of Manitoba.  He then attended Yeshiva in Israel, and received his rabbinic ordination in 1989 from Machon Harry Fischel Yeshiva in Jerusalem.

Rabbi Benarroch has taught Jewish Studies and served as a congregational rabbi in Phoenix and Vancouver. He was the Rabbi and Educational Director of the Sephardic Educational Center in Jerusalem from 1999-2010, and his weekly Devar Torah reached over 5000 readers via the internet. Currently, Rabbi Benarroch is the Rabbi and Director of Midreshet Eshel Seminary for Sephardic Women in Jerusalem. Rabbi Benarroch and his family made aliyah 14 years ago, and reside in Efrat, Israel.
