Sisterhood

Sisterhood -

Welcome to the Sisterhood of Temple Emanu-El. We are a strong, vibrant, and diverse group of women who span multiple generations. We show support for Temple Emanu-El by joining together in programs and activities that enrich our lives as Jewish women and strengthen and build friendships. We cultivate community, reinforce our Jewish customs and values, and through our educational and entertaining programming, we continue to repair the world through acts of loving kindness. Every program contains an aspect of Social Justice where we either donate to or participate in a charitable cause. Our Sisterhood is the heart of our Shul, and we welcome you with open arms. There is no fee to join Sisterhood, as it is a gift from our temple to thank you for your membership.

Over the past few years some of our programs have included baking challah with Rabbi Rachael, baking hamentaschen for the Purim Carnival to support the Diamond Family Religious School, enjoying a Women’s Seder for Passover along with a Passover Recipe Cookbook, making baskets of foods and home items for Afghan refugees, joining together for breakfasts and dinners, and other fun events for charitable causes.

For this year, we are also planning such programs as a Sisterhood Shabbat Dinner, Honey for a Higher Purpose Rosh Hashanah fundraiser, and a Mah Jongg event.

Please join us in making Sisterhood a vibrant and meaningful aspect of the Temple Emanu-El community. Your participation allows us to expand programming and appeal to younger members, seniors, and all of us in between. We welcome your suggestions and ideas to help Sisterhood grow and thrive.
