Never thought I'd ever see these combinations of words... "In-Demand Mohel."

Few rabbis are ever able to work as a full-time mohel. At 35 years old, in the eighth year of his career, Rabbi Eliezer Lawrence is one of them. He’s earned a certain kind of fame, performing five to ten brises per week, and makes good money doing it. While he won’t divulge his rate (and offers a sliding scale), Lawrence says mohels can receive up to $1,800 per ceremony. “I do believe there was divine intervention,” he says of his rise. “I can’t take full credit.”

Lawrence has more five-star reviews on Google than any of his competitors and has broken into a tough market with record speed. He performs hundreds of brises per year, from South Orange, New Jersey, to Flatbush. The rabbi has even done a handful of destination brises — in the Bahamas, Portugal, and Boston.

“You have to have a certain constitution to be able to do all of this interdisciplinary work,” he says, “being an armchair sociologist, space-maker, pastoral presence, and expert surgical practitioner.”

Today is week 3 at Vantage Group and the official start of "on the job training."

Like a former colleague of mine likes to say, "great things are happening."

I got a chance to tour the T6 worksite and I gotta tell you, I'm psyched about the opening and that's not me just repeating a company line.

So this is my re-introduction to JFK, at least until we're ready to open Terminal 6. Terminal still services multiple airlines with various wide body air crafts.
