Temple Sinai is a small, warm, and welcoming congregation located in Cinnaminson, (Burlington County) New Jersey. We are part of the Conservative tradition, with our own distinct style of egalitarian, progressive, and participatory services. Rabbi/Cantor Colman Reaboi and the Temple Sinai family welcome all families to join us for weekly services, Chaggim (holiday) celebrations, adult education, social action, social events, and being a part of a friendly community.

Please help the religious school board and Rabbi Colman in setting up a Youth Lounge that will create a:
– Comfortable space for parents to have coffee, chat, and socialize during Religious School
– Safe space for students who might need a “time out” from the rigors of school.
– Relaxed area to hold classes and sessions.
– Quiet place available to meditate or work on your own.
– Space where students and others can socialize together, whether it’s watching a movie, chatting, or playing a board or card game.
Thank you to all who help our youth feel more at home at Temple Sinai. Todah Robah!
