David created Romemu out of nothing. In less than 10 years, Romemu has become a fast-growing community of committed seekers drawing across faith traditions. The prayer services are incredibly moving, the learning opportunities are very strong, and neo-Hasidic joy permeates much of what we do. Best of all is the growing sense of community with people who feel a true spiritual home in a place that really wants each person just to be their authentic self. David made this.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.
We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
