What Sisterhood Does

Scroll down to see this year’s schedule of events and meetings.

Sisterhood is a vibrant and active group that plays many key roles in the daily life of Beth Shalom.  Sisterhood offers opportunities to connect with other women in the Beth Shalom community while supporting the synagogue, community tzedakah projects, and having fun. Most importantly, Sisterhood is always there for its members and the Beth Shalom family, in times of sorrow and times of simcha.
