To the Editor:
In a recent article, the JTA inaccurately stated that “Combined Jewish Philanthropies in Boston has hired a gay rabbi as its first interfaith ambassador, a role in which he runs interfaith parenting workshops and presides at interfaith marriages”. He does not preside over interfaith marriages or any other religious ceremonies as part of his role at CJP.
