Sisterhood Temple Emanuel is a caring, vibrant community with a multigenerational membership comprised of women engaged in synagogue life at many levels. Sisterhood strives to maintain and preserve Conservative Judaism by connecting Jewish women of all ages to one another, the synagogue, and the Jewish way of life. We work year-round to create and fund programs for the welfare of the Temple Emanuel congregation while fostering a sense of community responsibility among congregants.
Thank you to our Sisterhood Leadership for all that they do!
