Rabbi Taylor Baruchel

Rabbi Taylor Baruchel is the Director of Outreach and Next Gen Engagement at Holy Blossom Temple in Toronto.  A Montreal native, she was ordained from the Los Angeles campus of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in May 2023. After nearly a decade spent serving Jewish communities in the United States, in South Dakota, Ohio and with Hillel students across the state of Georgia, Rabbi Baruchel is thrilled to be back home in Canada.  Dedicated to being a life-long learner, she considers it a sacred duty to question, struggle and engage with all aspects of Jewish life and tradition. From sacred texts to kosher cookbooks, there is always something new to learn and be inspired by. Whether grabbing a coffee, digging into some texts, or relaxing around the Shabbat table, it is Rabbi Baruchel’s hope that we can come up with great questions together.
