Sisterhood/WRJ News

Although not holding regular meetings, our Sisterhood has been working behind the scenes to support our Temple.  We have presented a BIFTY scholarship and had a successful program - “The In-law Dilemma” with Hadassah. 

This summer we have joined with other local sisterhoods in an effort to collaborate our programming.  Our first program will be on Sunday, November 13 at 11:00 a.m. at Rodeph Sholom.  Author June Feiss Hersch will present her book “Recipes Remembered: A Celebration of Survival”.  The book is a compilation of food memories, stories and recipes from Holocaust survivors.

Save the date! We hope you can join us.
