人们在说什么

“RTI is the best 专业 development I do all year. It nourishes my body, mind, and soul. It provides me with tools to serve my congregation and the Jewish people better. An amazing time of learning, living, and being.”

“As rabbis we teach and preach about the need to create sacred space for our congregants, yet overlook that need for ourselves. RTI满足了这一需求, and I return each year from RTI spiritually and emotionally rejuvenated and invigorated.”

“RTI is an invaluable opportunity to 个人ly connect with colleagues as they are, with all of our rabbinic masks taken off. We cut straight to the tachlis, 的实用性, and strive to help one another in whatever stage we are at in our careers and in our mindset or emotional state.”
