Rabbi Micah Streiffer

Welcome!

I am a Toronto-based rabbi, teacher, and Ph.D. student who strives to help others deepen and strengthen their connection with Judaism in authentic, meaningful ways.

Here are some of my projects:

I am the Founder and Director of LAASOK, a virtual Beit Midrash (“House of Study”) that brings together liberal Jews (and the Jewishly adjacent) to engage meaningfully with our sacred texts.

I host the popular Seven Minute Torah podcast, in which we explore the weekly Torah portion through progressive Jewish eyes.

I officiate meaningful, Jewishly-grounded weddings and other life cycle events — including for interfaith couples, in many circumstances.

I serve as a teacher or Scholar in Residence (either in person or virtually) across North America, bringing meaningful Jewish learning to synagogues and communities.

I serve as Rabbi Emeritus of Kol Ami, a vibrant Reform congregation in the Toronto suburbs.

I would love to hear from you! Please email me.
