Rabbi Aaron Gruman received his rabbinic ordination from the Lakewood Yeshiva, Beth Medrash Govoha. He and his wife Elkie moved to the community in 1989. Rabbi Gruman grew up in Los Angeles, where his father, Rabbi Pinchos Gruman, served as Rabbi of Young Israel of Los Angeles for over thirty years.
Under his leadership, the community has grown to where it now has daily Minyanim, an Eruv, and a Mikvah, a daily Daf Yomi shiur, and weekly Shiurim.
