Rabbi Gloria Milner's Page

After almost thirty years in the business world as an advertising executive and hotelier in New York City, I decided to answer a life long call and don the robes of spiritual leader. Since I have spent much of my free time helping others, the transition to Rabbi was a natural one.

As a great proponent of understanding the spiritual needs of the individual, I believe that the most important job of any Rabbi is to listen with a compassionate, empathetic and non-judgmental ear. Whether it is a joyous hug in times of celebration or a shoulder to cry on in times of transition, all are welcomed.

Whether working with individuals, couples who are about to be married in the Jewish faith, or those from different religions, I always take the extra time to consider the thoughts and dreams of the participants. The couples I marry write wonderful testimonials for me, and I am so grateful to them!

I love to travel, and will happily officiate at destination weddings. I also conducts baby-naming ceremonies, same-sex marriage ceremonies, and enjoy meeting for premarital and general counseling.

I studied at the Rabbinic Seminary International under the guidance of founder Rabbi Joseph Gelberman.

I look forward to getting to know you!
