The Walton Way Temple has an extremely active Sisterhood. We voluntarily take on much of the Temple work that needs to be done such as high holiday babysitting and the floor of the Bart D. Wittenberg Religious School. We sponsor a number of programs and speakers throughout the year on women's issues and general interest. We usually meet on the first Thursday of each month when we often have a program. Please join us!

Lots of things: interesting and informative programs, friendships to be made and renewed, opportunities to be involved in various projects we support in the Temple, in our community and worldwide through our national organization, women of reform Judaism. Sisterhood offers us all a way to make a difference. We need every woman in our community and congregation to be a member.

The Women's Seder is an evening of special closeness, with readings that pertain to a woman's place in the history of Judaism.

Sisterhood sponsors a monthly Rosh Chodesh discussion group, covering a wide array of women's issues

The "Woman of the Year" Award is given annually at the May Donor Dinner. Recognition is also given to those members who have contributed to the success of Sisterhood's programs during the year.

Sisterhood Shabbat Weekend is a three day event which celebrates the contributions of women to Jewish daily life.

Sometimes the best part of the meeting is after the meeting, when our members continue the conversations and planning for upcoming programs
