Sisterhood

A few examples of the ongoing projects the Sinai Sisterhood oversees:

  • Break the Fast Nosh – After fasting for Yom Kippur, there is nothing like breaking bread with fellow congregants, and there is no charge!

  • Weekly Kiddush Luncheons – Our sisterhood’s monthly Yad Committee plans, shops, and prepares the communal Sabbath meal congregants enjoy when Saturday morning services conclude. Volunteers are always welcome, even if you haven’t signed up with Terry Feldbaum. See below for details about volunteering!*

  • Holiday Feasts – Of course, the Sinai Sisterhood coordinates the food and fun for observing and celebrating our Jewish holidays, such as Simchat Torah, Chanukah, and Purim.

  • Book Club – The women of Sinai bond as a sisterhood over a good book and enlightening conversation. The book club typically meets once a month for a book discussion and light refreshments. Contact Linda Mintz or Corky Carlin for more information.

  • Gift Shop – Bar/Bat Mitzvah coming up? Someone you love getting married? Looking for a new game to play with the young ones? The best place to buy a meaningful gift reflective of Jewish values and creativity is right in the foyer of Sinai Synagogue! Shop for menorahs, paper goods, decorations, art projects, and so much more! 

  • Directory – An indispensable asset to every member is the Sisterhood’s annual publication of Sinai’s directory and calendar. A veritable who’s who and what’s what of everything Sinai! Names, addresses, phone number, emails…Plus blessings and candle lighting times. Help is always needed to produce the directory.

Yad means hand, and our Sinai Sisterhood Yad Committee serves as the helping hands of our synagogue community by preparing and serving Kiddush luncheons. 

The Yad Committee experience is a wonderful place to meet other members, demonstrate your volunteerism for a congregational cause, and just have a good time.

Volunteers are always needed. Please call (574) 234-8584 to help.

We have a lot to talk about - from programming events and community updates to insights from rabbi and education news – so stay in the know with all things Sinai Synagogue!
