Rabbi Gendra is a rabbi, life coach and grief counselor, author and lecturer on medieval Jewish history. Rabbi Gendra's path to the rabbinate has been a long one until the summer of 2006 when he received his semichah -rabbinical ordination- from the Reconstructionist Rabbinical School (RRC). Before that, Rabbi Gendra studied studied Hebrew and Aramaic languages at the University of Barcelona (Spain, 1993) where he obtained his Master degree and his Ph.D. On medieval Judaism from Universitat de Girona (Spain, 2012). It was only then when he began his training to become a Rabbi at Reconstructionist Rabbinical School (2006) in Philadelphia and serving Temple B'nai Israel (Bulrington, NJ) and Congregation T'chyiah (Detroit, MI). After that he served Temple Beth Shalom (Mechanicsburg, PA) for 8 years and Congregation B'nai Tikva Beth Israel (Sewell, NJ) for 4 years. Rabbi Gendra has also been an adjunct professor at RRC (Philadelphia, PA) and Wilson College (Chambersburg, PA).
