Rabbi Sam Blustin explores the inner meaning of sacrifices today. 

While in Rabbinical School, Rabbi Sam Blustin created Shira B’dira, a traditional egalitarian prayer community where melody is used to uplift the prayer experience. The monthly minyan gathers 25-50 20 and 30 year olds for prayer and potluck dinner, and has reached over 500 young professionals in the four years since it began.

Sam has also spent time as the Rosh Shira (head songleader) at Chizuk Amuno in Baltimore, Beth El Synagogue Center in New Rochelle, NY, and Carmel Academy. He served as the rabbinic intern for Rabbi David Schuck at Beth El in New Rochelle, and the Youth Director at Ansche Chesed.
