The Confirmands
#barnertproud
On Shabbat, May 29, Rabbi Steiner and our community offered a special blessing for this year’s Confirmation class.
The Confirmation Class of 5780 has decided to continue for a second year of study and to be formally confirmed next spring when we can (hopefully) celebrate on our bima in person. So that we didn’t let this date pass, we offered these six students — Ethan Bernstein, Mollie Good, Jayson Harmer, Jennifer Mason, Sarah Miller, and Ezra Shafron — a special blessing on Friday evening, the day of their originally scheduled Confirmation service. It was a wonderful opportunity to join together to note this milestone and lift them up!

Meaningful Connections
Who knew a knitting circle via Zoom would become an opportunity to meet new people and connect in meaningful ways? Some brought knitting. Others brought crochet or macramé. Sometimes, people joined with nothing other than a desire to catch up and take a break from the day.
In many ways, our projects are the backdrop for discussions about everything and anything from books, movies, current events, policy, family issues — anything goes!
We’re so excited for our end-of-year Cocktail/Mocktail

Party, where we’ll share summer drink recipes, honor
our outgoing and incoming boards, and unveil the new Sisterhood Signature Beverage, which pays homage to our past leaders and celebrates our future. We’d certainly prefer to be celebrating in person on Jennifer Sauer’s new amazing deck. However, we’re so happy to have found ways to connect and support one another online. Come celebrate, learn, and connect with Sisterhood. We’re here for you!
