Olympia Rabbi One Of Nations Most Inspirational

Rabbi Seth Goldstein, of Olympia has been named one of 32 most inspirational rabbis by The Forward, a national independent Jewish newspaper.  Goldstein is the husband of Rabbi Yohanna Kinberg who was our rabbi at Temple B'Nai Torah.  According to the Daily Olympian, Goldstein was chosen because of his outreach going well beyond his temple.  He was been a community leader in such topics as gun control, marriage rights and advocacy for the homeless.  This trait was also demonstrated by Rabbi Kinberg, who frequently spoke of human rights in her sermons.
