Who We Are:

We provide: A collective identity for the women in our congregation, an outlet for the creative energy, talent and leadership for each of its members, a national and worldwide connection to other Jewish women through its affiliation with the Women of Reform Judaism.

We volunteer: Haven House, a shelter for battered women and children, TBZ Mitzvah Day project, Intergenerational Women's Seder.

How To Join:

Sisterhood needs the support of all of the women in the congregation. It is our sincere hope that every woman in our congregation will join us. Whether you come to meetings, programs, help us organize and plan events or just submit your dues, you are choosing to support Sisterhood. Your level of participation is up to you, but please remember that a dynamic, warm and inspired group of women await you, however you choose to participate. Be counted as a Woman of Reform Judaism! Your membership and generosity are greatly appreciated.

As a member of Sisterhood of Temple Beth Zion WRJ, you automatically become a member of Women of Reform Judaism (WRJ).  WRJ represents over 75,000 women in 500 Sisterhoods throughout the United States, Canada and thirteen other countries.  WRJ founded the North American Federation of Temple Youth (NFTY). WRJ is the largest single contributor to the Rabbinic Scholarship Fund for Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion (HUC-JIR). WRJ supports the World Union for Progressive Judaism which helps establish congregations and provides rabbinic leadership in more than 40 countries.  WRJ established the Jewish Braille Institute (JBI) which prints prayer books for the blind.
