Sisterhood

SISTERHOOD is the organization of women in our congregation who come together in friendship to benefit our Synagogue, the Jewish community and beyond. We show a collective presence, voice and strength of women within the structure of our congregation. It provides the setting in which its members meet and work together to foster and further ideals of Judaism. We work to strengthen and support Ohev Shalom.

As a member of our Sisterhood, you are automatically a member of the Mid-Atlantic Region as well as Women’s League for Conservative Judaism. You are entitled to attend programs which are under the auspices of the region (such as summer workshops and periodic programs) as well as attend International Convention and other International Women’s League activities (such as Distance Workshops and Leadership Institute). Sisterhood dues support WLCJ, and the Torah Fund Campaign which supports The Jewish Theological Seminary, Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies, Schecter Institute of Jewish Studies, Seminario Rabinico Latinamericano, and Frankel College, as well as other special projects. Membership in Ohev Shalom Sisterhood provides you with the opportunity to put your talents and gifts to use for many causes, both large and small. It will enrich your life as well as that of the entire congregation. Sisterhood is a community building resource for the women of Ohev Shalom that enables us to find camaraderie, deepen our spiritual connection to the synagogue, our connection to one another, and enjoy shared interests and events.
