RCA Issues Statement Regarding Recent Developments Surrounding the Eternal Jewish Family Organization Rabbinical Council of America December 22, 2009 http://www.rabbis.org/news/article.cfm?id=105516 Dec 22, 2009 -- We are deeply appalled, saddened and pained by reports that have reached us concerning alleged inappropriate behavior on the part of the chairman of the rabbinic committee of the Eternal Jewish Family, Rabbi Leib Tropper. We need to wait for more complete information before we can react fully. Nonetheless, at this time, we would make the following points clear: 1. What we have heard, if true, violates the fundamental elements of all that Judaism holds sacred. 2. We urge anyone who might have been victimized to seek appropriate counseling and we, at the Rabbinical Council of America, remain ready to refer anyone who needs such assistance to the appropriate professionals. 3. Anyone who may have any questions of Jewish Law regarding conversions should feel free to contact our Geirut administrator, Rabbi Michoel Zylberman, at 212-807-9000 ext. 3. For further information please contact Rabbi Barry Freundel at 202-258-5172. |
