Welcome to Temple Sinai of Glendale
About Us
Temple Sinai of Glendale is a Reform congregation that has served the needs of Jewish residents of Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena and the Foothill communities for over 80 years.  The Temple Sinai community of almost 300 families is a diverse group, welcoming interfaith couples, Jews by choice, strongly identified Jews and those just beginning to explore their Jewish identities. 

We are located at 1212 North Pacific Avenue, just 1/2 mile north of the 134 freeway in Glendale.

Rabbi Richard Schechter


A passionate teacher, speaker, writer, and storyteller, Rabbi Schechter brings a unique blend of wisdom, warmth, and sense of humor to the congregation and the community.

Before Temple Sinai, Rabbi Schechter served for five years as the spiritual leader of Congregation Beth Knesset Bamidbar in Lancaster, and for three years as a rabbi of Temple Shalom in Dallas. He was ordained from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in 1997.

Rabbi Schechter is active in spiritual development, interreligious dialogue, and creating vibrant and joyful Jewish living. His articles and award-winning sermons have appeared in national publications.

Born in St. Louis, Missouri, he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree with honors in writing and literature at Webster University. He is April’s husband and Evan and Nina's father. He enjoys tennis, movies, and being on sailboats.
