Sisterhood Temple Emanuel strives to maintain and preserve Jewish heritage by connecting Jewish women of all ages to one another, the synagogue, and the Jewish way of life. We work year-round to create and fund programs and events for the Temple Emanuel community while fostering awareness and activism for the Jewish community at-large.

Sisterhood is a member of the New England Branch of Women’s League for Conservative Judaism. All members of Sisterhood Temple Emanuel are members of Women’s League and are welcome to the benefits of membership which include special programming and subscriptions to both Women’s League’s magazine Outlook and Temple Emanuel’s Sisterhood Newsletter.
