Sisterhood Mission Statement

The mission of Congregation Beth Judea Sisterhood is to foster and further the highest ideals of Conservative Judaism, as expressed by the Synagogue, serving as a center of religious, charitable, educational and social activities for the women of the Synagogue.

Sisterhood will continually strive to:

  • Enhance the lives of its members with programs and activities that provide meaning and enjoyment.
  • Unite the diverse women of Beth Judea and create a sense of purpose, involvement and friendship.
  • Expand its presence, leadership and impact on the Synagogue and community as a whole.
  • Identify meaningful causes to support, and engage in activities to support these efforts.
  • Strengthen bonds with the larger Jewish community (e.g. Women’s League, Jewish Theological Seminary), in an effort to broaden perspective and collaborate on new ideas / programs.
