What We're All About

On a personal level, for decades, Sisterhood of Temple Beth El in Tacoma has been a group of women who have formed lifelong bonds by empowering ourselves to run a Jewish organization, not just a committee of the Board of TBE.

On a local level, we are dedicated to the education and enhancement of Temple Beth El families. We bring people together to form a community and provide ways for adults and youth to connect more to Judaism and its tenets.

On a larger scale, we are a branch of Women of Reform Judaism (WRJ) that strengthens the voice of women worldwide, empowers caring communities, nurtures congregations, cultivates personal and spiritual growth, and advocates for and promotes progressive Jewish values. You do not need to be a member of Temple Beth El to join our Sisterhood.

As always, we are Stronger Together!
