Rabbi Meir Goldstein is blessed to be the Senior Jewish Educator at the Oregon Hillel Foundation and Judaic Studies lecturer at the University of Oregon. He elevates human dignity by building a community of learners. Rabbi Goldstein attended the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies at the American Jewish University, earning an MA in Rabbinic Studies in 2003 and Rabbinic Ordination in 2006. When not at work, he is happiest on a hiking trail, playing guitar, or studying. Rabbi Goldstein lives in the holy city of Eugene, Oregon, with his wife, Laura, and their loving (yet bossy) shih tzu, Koofi.
Exploring Judaism is a home for the Torah of Conservative Judaism, embracing the beauty and complexity of Judaism, and our personal search for meaning, learning, and connecting. There is always something to learn and explore.
