Sha’arei Sisterhood

“Nothing takes place by accident!”

Sha’arei Sisterhood was initiated by just 3 members in September 2013.   Our membership has grown and so has our mission.  We now have a solid group of volunteers that have a vital role in serving the synagogue.   Here are some of our activities:

Kiddushim:  We make, or have sponsors for, a Shabbat celebratory meal after morning services, making them bountiful enough to serve the entire congregation.  As a result, the congregation remains to eat together and share in this important part of Shabbat.  Members can use them to celebrate a simcha (Bar/Bat Mitzvah, birthday, anniversary), for a yartzeit commemoration, or just to be a part of the fun!

  • High Holiday and festival greeters
  • Decorating the Sukkah
  • Polishing the silver on the Torah Scrolls for the High Holidays
  • Book Club: We welcome new attendees in reading one book per month by a Jewish author or with Jewish content.
  • Speaker series: This was initiated this year (2016). Check our activity calendar for upcoming events.

Sisterhood is always looking for new members with fresh ideas and we donate our hard-earned proceeds to help Sha’arei grow.  Anyone can become a member, and dues are only $18 per year.  Your involvement can range from merely attending one of our monthly meetings, helping set goals, or donating time or money to support a project you feel good about.
