Tradition meets meaningful connection

From the day of his Bar Mitzvah over twenty years ago, Chazzen Scott (Shmuel) Goldstein has been leading prayer services as a Shaliach Tzibur and Torah Reading as a Ba’al Koreh for congregations of all sizes in Israel and North America.

Raised at the duchanim of Israeli synagogues – ranging from Litvisch to Morrocan to the Chasidim of Modzitz, the Chazzen draws from all of his experiences to create an environment of personal connection with a service.

His professional experience includes over ten years leading High Holiday (Rosh HaShannah & Yom Kippur) services, honing his skills even further, to become the well-rounded Chazzen so highly in demand today. Carefully balancing the content of a service with insightful elucidation that allows every congregant to make their own personal connection with the service while being a part of the whole experience.

When choosing a Chazzen for your services or events, it is important to consider the needs of the congregation or audience as well as the experience and background of the Chazzen. The tradition, soul, and inspirational tunes the Chazzen brings with him and his experience as a Jewish educator are the unique ingredients for this exceptional Chazzen.

Some of the synagogues that the Chazzen regularly served as Shaliach Tzibur include: Yad Moshe in Jerusalem, Avnei Nezer in Kiryat Sefer, Ateret HaTorah in Jerusalem, Shaar HaShomyim in Sudbury, Avnei HaChoshen in Modiin, Shirah Chadasha in Sudbury, Ottawa Torah Centre, Beth Isaiah in Guelph, and Sons of Jacob Congregation in Belleville.
