Rav Shlomo's leadership blends his deep knowledge of Torah with a thirst for a lived experience of closeness to Hashem. His spiritual authenticity is infectious and the passion he exhibits for Torah, the Jewish people, and Eretz Yisrael reverberates throughout his kehillah.

With hundreds of students and thousands of recorded shiurim, published books and many moving recorded albums, he is uniquely suited to guide young rabbis to lives of communal impact in Eretz Yisrael. Rav Shlomo will oversee all aspects of MZH and will be directly leading the afternoon study and workshops in Penimiyus Hatorah and rabbinical training.

As the Mashgiach, Rav Shalom Weisberg is in charge of the afternoon Seder and is a wonderful role model of a modern Mashgiach, dedicating himself to teaching and learning alongside the Avreichim. His focus on in-depth study of Penimyus HaTorah, Mussar, and Machshava helps generate a meaningful and inspiring environment for spiritual growth.

Rav Shalom brings many years of teaching experience, including being a Mechanech at Yeshivat Orot Yehuda in Efrat, and at Michlelet Mevaseret Yerushalayim (MMY) where he teaches Chassidut and Torat Harav Kook. He also is currently serving as the Rav of Kehillat Ahavat Shalom in Caesarea.

Rav Shalom graduated from Yeshivat Hakotel and holds a BA from Michlelet Lifshitz as well as an MS in Machshevet Yisrael from Michlalah Jerusalem College. He received Semicha from Rav Wahrhaftig and is also a certified marriage counselor, helping people in both their spiritual and personal lives.
