What is Sisterhood?

Sisterhood works hard to bring education, religious, and social programs to our synagogue.

Some of our Sisterhood, Temple, and community projects have included:

✡ Provide kiddush cups for every Bar/ Bat Mitzvah, in cooperation with MOE.

✡ Assist with community projects, such as iHelp, Asylum Seekers, Jewish Family & Children's Service, & others.

✡ Support Temple Emanuel's priorities and programs, such as camp scholarships, mitzvah projects, and community events.

✡ Monthly email communications about our activities, quarterly "Sisters in the Hood" newsletters, announcements & photos on our Facebook page.

...and the fun we have along the way!
