Temple Sisterhood

A quick update on Sisterhood’s sponsorship of a young
handicapped boy in Israel for his Bar Mitzvah: through our donation we provided him with a kippa, a tallit, and a kiddush cup. This program is coordinated by the Women’s League of Conservative Judaism.

Enjoy your summer!

Who are we?
And why would you want to be a member?

Our Sisterhood affiliated with Women’s League For Conservative for Judaism in 1954. We have 122 Members, and we are one of 700 Affiliated Sisterhoods in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Israel and other parts of the world. We are in a partnership with the Conservative/Masorti Movement, with close ties to all of its constituent Organizations.

Through Torah Fund, we help support the Jewish Theological Seminary ( New York) that provide us with Rabbis and Cantors.

So how does our Sisterhood enhance Temple?

We support our Hebrew School and our Youth. And most of all we support our Temple.

We conduct an annual Sisterhood Shabbat, Host Hanukah Parties, Tu B’ Shavat Seders; we have joint programs with the Men’s Club. We provide food for break the fast after Yom Kippur.

Our Annual September Paid-up Membership dinner is always big hit. For years we have had a representative sit on the Women’s Council at the Jewish Community Federation.

Our representatives attend New York State Branch Board meetings and National conventions where we meet with other Sisterhood Women, and exchange ides for programs and Fund Raisers.

Check out our upcoming programs! Watch the Temple Bulletin and Web Site for our future events, and tell us what you’d like to see!

We are organizing a group to visit the sick, an important mitzvah, that is sure to bring comfort to those in the hospital or
home-bound due to illness. This is an act of loving kindness which will make you and the person you visit feel good.

If you have an interest in helping out with this group please or would like more information, please contact the Temple Office - 266 - 3223 or
