We have meetings every month. Some are Jewish, like our annual Sukkot, Chanuka, Passover seder, and Sisterhood Shabbat. Some are informational, like when we present ballot propositions, or bring in a speaker on controversial topics. Others are purely social, such as our meeting focused on telling our stories. All are fun and include snacks! Click the Meetings & Events button for a detailed list.

Sisterhood provides the snacks, drinks, setup and cleanup for 52 (plus or minus a couple) onegs a year. You can celebrate an event like a birthday, anniversary, graduation, baby naming, etc. by sponsoring an oneg. Sisterhood volunteers provide the setup and cleanup. If you would be willing to be one of the Sisterhood volunteers who help provide a beautiful oneg presentation for our Temple, either once a month, or on an occasional basis, please contact us using the contact form and let us know!

Sisterhood can provide a low cost luncheon after your child’s Bar or Bat Mitzvah for your family and friends. This is not the big schlabang with a DJ and dancing – it’s a low key way to provide a nice meal after the service for your guests. It's particularly good if your child is having a morning service and an evening party, and you need to provide lunch for your guests in between. We also can provide a meal of condolence after a memorial service held at the Temple.

The TAS Judaica Shop, located across from the main temple office, is open by appointment, which can be arranged by calling:

You can purchase a lulav and etrog set through Sisterhood. Contact us a month before Sukkot if you wish to purchase a set.

Ever wish you had a personal secretary to send out birthday wishes, condolence cards or messages of congratulations? Well you do! We call them Tributes. All it takes is an email to Becky Breuer, our Tribute Chair, and your card will be on its way to your recipient. And part of the cost is a donation to Sisterhood, so your friend or relative will get a message that a donation to Sisterhood was made in their honor (or in memory of a relative.)

Sisterhood greatly values investing money in training our leaders. We have a Leadership Training over the summer just for our Sisterhood, and we spend money sending women to the Southern California WRJ PD Area day, the Pacific District convention, the WRJ Fried Leadership conference, and the WRJ Social Justice conference. These events are all fun as well as being informative and educational. Come to next summer's Area Day and find out!
