Kudos...This is Sisterhood!

Membership Appreciation Brunch – what a beautiful event.

More than 100 women gathered to eat, schmooze and create Kesher bags for the food insecure. One of the highlights was watching our 1st graders sing “Todah Rabbah” to the Sisterhood for our generous support of Yalla!, our religious school. We welcomed more than two dozen new members who will continue the legacy of giving and building community, which is Sisterhood. The ruach was infectious! Rabbi Stephanie Kramer, Shanny Morgenstern, Kristi Kanarek, Laurie Goldstein, Marilyn Cohen and the dozens of volunteers from Sisterhood, Brotherhood and the Synagogue Board made our gala extra special! The Yalla! children created original placemats, the mimosas were flowing and the centerpieces were fun and creative… but most of all, thank YOU, for it is your support that makes events like this possible.
