Sisterhood

The Sisterhood of Temple Adath Yeshurun is dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Conservative Judaism. We provide a venue for women to find opportunities for friendship, education, and growth. We offer support and service to one another, the synagogue and the Jewish Community.

The Sisterhood of Temple Adath Yeshurun encompasses 250 women, with varying areas of interest and capabilities. We have monthly meetings with featured speakers, musical performances, creative activities, and much more. Our meetings take place on Wednesday mornings, Wednesday evenings, or Sunday mornings, depending on the calendar of events. We alternate the meeting times to accommodate everyone's different schedule needs.

All that we do benefits the Temple. From running the Judaica shop, to the Library, to the Fine Arts & Crafts Show, to the two annual Rummage Sales. Our efforts are limitless and there is always plenty for new members to enjoy and participate in. After services every Shabbat we provide a Kiddush for the Congregation, and also offer Extended Kiddushes for special occasions.

We support the Torah Fund Campaign of Women's League for Conservative Judaism on behalf of The Jewish Theological Seminary of America. In this way our members participate in the development, strengthening and maintenance of Jewish Theological Seminary.

For more information contact the Temple office at 445-0002, ext. 113.

Torah Fund

Women’s League for Conservative Judaism is the world’s largest women based organization. Through our dedication and generosity to the Torah Fund campaign, we support the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, The Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies in Los Angeles, and the Schechter Institute of Jewish Learning in Jerusalem. Sisterhood, through its financial contributions to the Torah Fund, assures that these institutions of Judaic learning produce the rabbis, cantors, and teachers needed for the Conservative Movement. You can support the Torah Fund by purchasing pins and cards.

Cards are $4 each ($5 if we write & mail your request),
Pins are $180. We have everything from simchas and mazel tov to get well and sympathy.
