Rabbi Avrohom A. Feldman received semicha from Rabbi Zalman Nechemiah Goldberg, senior member of the Jerusalem Rabbinate and from Rabbi Gedalia Dov Schwartz, Av Beis Din of the Rabbinical Council of America. Rabbi Feldman studied in the Lakewood Yeshiva, Yeshivat Haichel Hatorah in Jerusalem, and at Ner Israel Rabbinical College in Baltimore, MD. While attending Ner Israel, Rabbi Feldman attended the University of Maryland.

Rabbi Feldman has worked in the rabbinate and Jewish Education for the past 10 years. Most recently he served as Associate Rabbi of Congregation Beth Jacob in Atlanta, GA., a 600 family congregation. Rabbi Feldman was the key force behind the revamping of the conversion process in Atlanta and served as the Director of the Conversion Beis Din. His role also included counseling, drashos, lectures (halacha, medical ethics, history, etc), officiating life cycle events and NCSY and young couples events. He participated on the Atlanta Kashrus Commission as a member of its Rabbinic Kashrus Advisory Board. In addition, he also has served as the Assistant Rabbi and Education Director of Young Israel of Kendall in Miami.

Upon his arrival, Rabbi Feldman seeks to make sure that Ahavas Sholom provides a warm and welcoming environment to Jews of all backgrounds and of all ages, where they can maximize their spiritual growth, through the study of Torah and internalizing its ideals. He believes that the synagogue should be a place where people gather to reach out and celebrate in good times and to seek comfort and guidance in challenging times.
