Meet Rabbi and Rebbetzin Babich

Shul

Rabbi Eli Babich joined the Fifth Avenue Synagogue as Assistant Rabbi in 2013 and was appointed Rabbi in 2019. He has imparted wisdom, meaning, and inspiration from the bimah and through many classes. The Rabbi and his wife, Rebbetzin Lisa Babich, have supported our families through times of joy and sorrow. Our congregation has benefited deeply from their thoughtful dedication to ritual, educational, and pastoral duties. They have created an environment where our members, both existing and new, feel welcome and valued.

“In Conversation With” Series

Annual Campaigns

“Great is tzedakah, for since the day that the world was created until this day, the world stands upon tzedakah.” 

-Midrash Tanna d’Vei Eliyahu Zutta 1

Whether you are a long-time member, or someone who works nearby and drops in to daven during the week, or even someone who visits occasionally when in town, your donations are essential to allowing us to open our doors  for daily communal prayer and to open our arms to all community members, particularly those in need.

We encourage you to strengthen your commitment to our synagogue and to Jewish  generations to come.
