About Rabbi Kurry

Rabbi Kurry is a former college English professor with many years and deep roots in the Jewish community, holding many leadership positions from synagogue president and social action chairman, to interfaith outreach coordinator. Rabbi Kurry is committed to the concept of a life of personal spiritual development and service to God and humanity.

As "The Modern Rabbi", Rabbi Bill distinguishes himself from the traditional Rabbi with an emphasis on the spiritual aspects of a personal and practical ministry. The "Modern Rabbi" is not a judge or an interpreter of law; instead he or she serves as a spiritual guide for peoples searching for a greater spiritual consciousness in Judaism.

Rabbi Bill understands the need to reach out to interfaith couples and families. He believes we are all God's children and there is a universal commonality in all faiths. When requested, Rabbi Bill will co officiate with ministers and priests of all traditions in any location. Rabbi Kurry received Rabbinic ordination from Rabbi Joseph H. Gelberman and The Rabbinical Seminary in New York City.
