The heart of Sisterhood lies in our community of amazing women!
Your membership makes so many wonderful things possible - Mitzvah Day, Women's Seder, B'nai Mitzvah gifts for children, Apples & Honey for our congregants, welcoming new members to B'nai Jehudah, Shabbat treats, congregational dinners and so much more. Our Sisterhood is an amazing group of women. We come together for friendship, support, community, activism, learning and spiritual growth. Our members range from young to ‘young at heart.' We have a Sisterhood group for women with children in Religious School, S2, with exciting programming specially tailored to their interests and planned by their group during Yalla! time.
Thank you so much for your support of Sisterhood!
Warmly,
Marilyn Cohen, Membership Vice President

MOVING? CLEANING UP?
HELP SUPPORT SISTERHOOD, TOO!
You will get a tax donation form and Sisterhood gets a percentage of the earnings thanks to our Sisterhood member, Lori Siegel, the owner of the resale shop "A Lotta Stuff at Stan's."
Items should be in the garage boxed and ready to go. If necessary she can help clean out and remove usable items from your home for a reasonable charge. Lori can use almost any item as long as it is not ripped, stained, broken, and still has some usefulness.
Covid safety guidelines are followed. Please mention Sisterhood!
To arrange a pick-up, please call Lori's cell, 816-668-3960, or
A Lotta Stuff at Stan's 913-299-2939
