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.

Torah Fund: Supporting Conservative Judaism

Women’s Network is proud to help Conservative Judaism both here at home and abroad through the Torah Fund. Your Torah Fund gift supports the Jewish Theological Seminary and other agencies for education. Those who contribute at least $180 will receive this year's special pin.

Charter Oak - Cooking
Sunday, Dec 8th 9:00a to 11:30a
Volunteering for the Charter Oak Cultural Center is a wonderful opportunity to make a "hands on" difference to families in need. Once a month, Beth El volunteers prepare and serve dinner to children (and their families) who attend a special after-school music program organized by the Cultural Center. Cooking is done in the Beth El kitchen on a Sunday morning. Then, on Tuesday at Alfred E. Burr Elementary School, we set up, serve and clean up. (Our December and June meals are served at Charter Oak Cultural Center.) Setup is at 4:45pm and serving begins at around 5:00pm. Burr Elementary School is located at 400 Wethersfield Avenue, Hartford, CT. To become part of this terrific program contact Adam Schuyler at adam.d.schuyler@gmail.com (cooking), and Myra Kleinman at mwkleinman@outlook.com (serving).
