Women of Temple Beth Torah
The Women of Temple Beth Torah is a women's organization with a main objective of promoting socialization, education and religiosity of our membership while promoting the values of Reform Judaism. We are affiliated with the Women of Reform Judaism, a multi-national organization. Our membership is comprised of Jewish and non-Jewish women, both affiliated with our temple and non-affiliated.
As a group we do many activities in support of our Temple, community and members. We maintain, furbish and supply the temple kitchen and arrange for and/or supply refreshments for the Sabbath social hour and holy day observances.
The Women of Temple Beth Torah is very involved with our Religious School and provides Hanukah gift bags and other requested items. Also, we provide camperships so that children may attend Jewish summer camp. We maintain a very extensive Judaic Gift Shop. The shop is stocked with items for ritual observances, Jewish household necessities, books, greeting cards, toys, games and gift items. “Wish Lists” and gift registry services are available.
