The International Conference of Rabbis

We are a Havruta of Rabbis who have found a need to seek others who share our concerns and our commitment.
First and foremost, ICOR is a Conference Of Rabbis. Our primary perceived mission is to bring companionship (albeit mostly electronic) to our Rabbinic membership.

As a continuing effort, we present drashot from some of our members on a voluntary basis. While these drashot express the opinions and display the writing styles of the specific member(s), they may not be taken to represent the opinions, policies, or philosophy of ICOR on specific issues.

Some of the Drashot may be in the traditional format of Divrei TORAH in that they will refer to the Parasha being read on that Shabbat, while others may not fully comply with a traditional Dvar TORAH format. We offer these to you as flash points for your own thoughts, or as cures for writers' block. We ask that you credit the author, if you quote and -- if possible -- that you submit material which you think is worthy of your colleague's attention.

ICOR is always accepting new members. Your first contact should be an email to ICOR Membership with some information about yourself. ICOR charges NO DUES.

Realizing that there are many congregations which cannot find suitable Rabbis and many Rabbis who are looking for suitable positions, ICOR is now accepting requests for candidates from congregations, and requests for placements from Rabbis. Your first contact should be an email to ICOR Membership describing what you are looking for. While we cannot guarantee a happy shidduch, we will guarantee that each applicant for our help will be treated with confidentiality, whether that applicant be a congregation or a colleague.
