Temple Beth Emeth Sisterhood, the local Women of Reform Judaism branch, is dedicated to involving its members in Judaism, social action and fellowship. We provide a variety of religious, educational, and social programs for the TBE and Ann Arbor communities, serve as an important fund-raising organization for TBE, and act as a link to the regional and national WRJ organizations.

Our dues to WRJ fund projects such as early learning centers in Israel, the North American Federation of Temple Youth (NFTY) and scholarships for the education of Reform rabbis at Hebrew Union College. TBE congregants, through WRJ, are patrons of the World Union for Progressive Judaism and JBI (formerly the  Jewish Braille Institute).

Annual Sisterhood events include:

Autumn Welcoming Brunch

Yom Kippur Break-the-Fast for the  congregation

 Chanukah Bazaar

Midwinter membership dinner we call D.A.M.E.S.

A Sisterhood Shabbat service

At Purim, we provide and sell hamantashen with proceeds supporting a community-wide Purim party for seniors at the JCC.

Through the College Connections program Sisterhood sends holiday gift packages twice a year to college students of TBE member families.

Sisterhood members provide volunteer relief staff at Ronald McDonald House at Christmas and Easter.

Members meet for monthly dinners/lunches and regular mah jongg dates.
