As a Jewish boy in France during World War II, Leo Michel Abrami
evaded Nazi persecution when his mother sent him to live in
Normandy disguised as a Catholic boy. When the war ended, he
returned to some semblance of a traditional life.
As his life and career evolved, however, it became anything but
traditional. In this engaging autobiography, Rabbi Arieh narrates
stories about people, places, and events with both candor and keen
observation. He served congregations worldwide, from the United
States to Guatemala and South Africa. He also served as a prison
chaplain in California, counseling murderers such as Charles Manson
and Edmund Kemper.
Rabbi Arieh's stories are infused with his strong faith and his
unique perspective on Judaism. Numerous challenges arose because of
his nondenominational and pluralistic attitude toward all segments
of the Jewish community. While his non-allegiance to any single
denomination made his professional life more difficult, it was a
matter of deep personal conviction.
Above all else, Rabbi Arieh endeavored to bring his message of
faith to the people and communities he served. Through this series
of captivating anecdotes you'll be inspired by his life of service
and scholarship.
