About

The Interfaith Clergy Network was founded in Cherry Hill, New Jersey over 50 years ago (1971) by Rabbi Shimon L. Berris and Reverend Justin Herbst both of blessed memory.They recognized the opportunity to assist couples and their families by co-officiating together at inter-religious life cycle celebrations and events (Jewish - Catholic - Protestant). Since the inception of our ecumenical clergy group, our rabbis, cantors, priests, deacons, and ministers have officiated individually and as partners at countless Wedding Celebrations, Namings and Baptisms, Bar and Bat Mitzvah ceremonies, and Memorial Services throughout the United States and in several other countries as well. Now directed by Cantor Neil A. Berris, our current roster includes 23 seminary educated and ordained clergy, with years of compassionate service and experience in synagogues, temples, parishes, congregations, and chaplaincies.

Would Highly Recommend Cantor Neil Berris and Father Richard Gross

Would Highly Recommend Cantor Neil Berris and Father Richard Gross. We had an interfaith ceremony (Russian Jewish groom and Irish Catholic Bride). Cantor Berris was instrumental in helping us celebrate both of our upbringings in the ceremony. He was extremely helpful and very responsive throughout the wedding planning process. Our guests were all blown away with how beautiful the ceremony was, and we received "exceeded expectations" feedback from our family and friends. Would highly recommend for couples that are looking for a similar experience 10/10.

The Best Officiant I Could Ask For!!

Cantor Neil Berris is not only one of the best officiants, but is truly one of the kindest and most thoughtful people I have ever met. Cantor Berris' father had married my parents back in 1987, and it was clear he holds the same values and traditions as his father. He takes great care and thought into each and every ceremony he performs, with the goal to make it as personal and unique to the couple as possible. He is incredibly easy to work with, and takes the time to get to know you and your partner, so it feels more like being married by a friend than an officiant. There are no words to express how thankful I am to Cantor Berris for making our wedding day so special. I cannot recommend Interfaith Clergy Network enough!!!

Phenomenal

We ADORE Cantor Berris! He worked with us for about a year and a half and went above and beyond to help us in every way. I am Jewish and my husband is Catholic and Cantor Berris set us up with Father Richard for our Catholic sacraments and requirements. We also ADORE him! Both of them honestly feel like family after an 1.5 year engagement/wedding planning. Would recommend them to anyone !! Thank you so much for everything you both did for us!
