Rabbi Mirium Burg

Rabbi Miriam Cotzin Burg is a dreamer and a doer, a teacher and a learner. She has been inspired and delighted by the adults, children and families with whom she has worked throughout her career. She is thrilled to be returning to serve as Rabbi for the High Holidays at the Oahu Jewish Ohana for the eighth time! Currently, she serves as the founder and CEO of Hava NaBaby, a new, soon-to-be national Jewish childbirth education initiative for expectant parents. Miriam is an alumna of the Wexner Graduate Fellowship. She was ordained in 2002 at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion where she also earned a Master’s degree in Jewish Education. She is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the Honors College at the University of Michigan. She lives in Baltimore City with her husband and her son, Shamir. Her daughter, Eliyah, graduated from high school in June and Miriam still can't believe she doesn't live at home anymore! 

Rabbi Jessica Lenza

Rabbi Jessica Lenza, also known as the Rebel Rabbi, brings her signature irreverent style to everything she does. Her path to the rabbinate included studying at schools like Pardes, HUC-JIR’s School of Sacred Music, and Leo Baeck College in London. It was from the Rabbinical School at Hebrew College that she received her rabbinic ordination and earned an MA in Jewish studies. Rabbi Lenza has also completed training as a yoga teacher, a maven, and a mikveh guide seamlessly integrating all of these unique and diverse experiences into her rabbinate. As a singer and guitar player, Rabbi Lenza is known for infusing sacred Jewish moments with inspiring melodies. In New York city, she has served communities like the Manhattan JCC, Temple Shaaray Tefila, the Village Temple, the Streicker Center at Temple Emanuel and Congregation B’nai Jeshurun. As a freelance rabbi, she brings unique Jewish experiences to families worldwide including her beloved Hawaiian High Holiday community, OJO. She lives in Manhattan with her pleasantly plump cat, Dolci.
