Sisterhood Events and Updates
WHAT WE DO
Sisterhood is a link in a chain that starts right here and stretches back through many generations of Judaism to countless other women who have come together out of strength, need and love. Some of the ways we provide this link include:
-
Observe Jewish traditions by serving apples and honey on Rosh Hashanah, special Oneg Shabbat treats for Erev Rosh Hashanah and Sukkot, and Break-the-Fast for Yom Kippur.
-
Supply beautiful Judaica through the Gift Shop and the Hanukkah Gift Bazaar.
-
Assist the congregation with printed invitation needs, selling discounted bar/bat mitzvah and wedding invitations in addition to personal stationery items.
-
Support the Social Action committee’s many projects and activities.
-
Raise funds for SKIP (Send-a-Kid-to-Israel Partnership) and special synagogue projects (building expansion, parking lot, etc.) and provide donations for worthy causes such as the Avon Walk, Maccabiah Games and Holocaust Museum.
-
Join the Brotherhood in joint programs and activities such as Shabbat dinner, leading Shabbat services, attending Bulls Games, Whirleyball and Soup, Bread & Game Night.
-
Provide babysitting during High Holiday Services.
-
Meet throughout the year for special events, outings and fun, interesting programs.
We welcome first-year congregation members with a free one-year Sisterhood membership.
If you are planning a meeting, event or program, please follow the guidelines listed here.
MEETINGS
Our meetings are held monthly, on Sunday mornings beginning at 10:00 AM in the lower level multipurpose room of the synagogue or at Westlake. Each meeting begins a program with informative speakers on topics of interest, or fun activities such as Yoga and Zumba Fitness, followed by a brief business meeting. All Sisterhood members and guests are welcome to attend these meetings.
