Women's Network
Welcome to the way the women of our synagogue connect with each other, the temple and our Jewish way of life. Whether it's a speaker, book talk, lunch-and-chat in the sukkah, or a night out to catch a show, you're always welcome.
What we do
We support the temple's work in many ways, coordinating bima decorations for holidays, bima decorative baskets for bar/bat mitzvah services, Yom Kippur break-fast snacks, the synagogue gift shop and more. We enjoy connecting with other Beth El programs for women including Women’s Shabbat Circle, Chai Mitzvah groups, Yoga Shabbat, and Connections & Conversations.

MarMarch 3 , 2021America's Jewish Women: An Evening with Pamela Nadell
Wednesday, Mar 3rd 8:00p to 9:00p
Professor Pamela Nadell will celebrate Women’s History Month with us and share insights from her recent book, "America’s Jewish Women: A History from Colonial Times to Today," which won the 2019 National Jewish Book Award—Everett Family Foundation Jewish Book of the Year. Weaving together stories from the colonial era to the present, Nadell shows two threads binding the nation's Jewish women: a strong sense of self and a resolute commitment to making the world a better place. Nadell holds the Patrick Clendenen Chair in Women's and Gender History at American University where she directs the Jewish Studies Program and received the university's highest award, Scholar/Teacher of the Year.
