Rabbi Chaim Strauchler To Take the Helm at Rinat
By Michal Rosenberg | April 28, 2021
Teaneck’s Congregation Rinat Yisrael recently appointed Rabbi Chaim Strauchler as its new rabbi, replacing Rabbi Yosef Adler, who is retiring after leading the shul since 1979. Rabbi Strauchler comes to Rinat from Shaarei Shomayim Congregation in Toronto, Canada, where he’s been the rabbi since 2008. Previously, he was the leader of Beit Chaverim Synagogue in Westport, Connecticut, for three years.
Rabbi Strauchler spoke with The Jewish Link relating how “thrilled” he is to be joining the Rinat community and is “very excited to be in the center of Modern Orthodoxy in a proudly Modern Orthodox community which exemplifies the best of Judaism.”
