Central Synagogue

A dynamic speaker, his sermons and talks have carried the mission of the Torah, the message of our heritage, and the centrality of Israel to our People to audiences and the public at large. He has earned a reputation of steadfast and unflinching support of Israel, especially during times of crisis.

Rabbi Marcus is active in promoting Holocaust remembrance and education. In 1998, he pioneered the concept of a one-day educational trip to Auschwitz in which over 8,000 have participated to date.
