Team Mishkan
We may be small but we are mighty.
From our home-grown, local Rabbi and founder, to our super-human staff of 6 and growing, Mishkan’s staff has (collective) decades of experience envisioning, creating, growing, sustaining and organizing community.
We’re Hiring!
Mishkan is seeking a Development Manager— an integral part of the Mishkan staff in the Chicago office, who will work closely with the Managing Director, Rabbi, and lay leadership to manage fundraising.
Rabbi Lizzi Heydemann
Lizzi Heydemann catalyzed the founding of Mishkan Chicago in September of 2011. She graduated with Honors from Stanford University, and was ordained by the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies in Los Angeles in 2010. Her first job out of school was as the first Revson Rabbinic Fellow at IKAR in Los Angeles. Mishkan contains the DNA of IKAR in Los Angeles, B’nai Jeshurun in New York, and the ecstatic, musical and meditative Jewish tradition that emerged out of South America to give rise to that approach here in the States.
