Temple Sholom of Cincinnati is entering its seventy-first year with new rabbinic leadership on the bima, continuing to improve its unique combination of Judaism and advocacy. The congregation will joyfully install Rabbi Ari Jun as their fifth rabbi during the weekend of May 2.
Rabbi Jun is the son of two rabbis — Rabbis Julie Schwartz and Steven Ballaban — and grew up in Cincinnati and Atlanta. He was ordained by Hebrew Union College on the Cincinnati campus in 2015.
Synagogue President Robin Miller notes that with his experience as a rabbi and community leader devoted to social justice and Tikkun Olam, he’s the perfect fit for Temple Sholom’s goals and hopes.
Temple Sholom will formally install Rabbi Jun on Friday, May 2 at the JCC Amberly room at 6:30. There will be a morning service that Saturday, with learning and a luncheon at Temple Sholom. The weekend will conclude with an evening reception at Esoteric Brewery in Walnut Hills that Saturday night.
