Sholom Women

Sholom Women is the organization of the women of Peninsula Temple Sholom. We bond together in friendship and sisterhood for programs to benefit PTS and the community, for social activities, to study and pray, and for personal development and Jewish growth. Sholom Women is the collective presence, voice and strength of women. It is the place where women can meet and work together for the benefit of PTS. Proudly affiliated with the Women of Reform Judaism.

Sholom Women Listening Campaign

Our Sholom Women Leadership Council has elected to take time to step back and pause our yearly programming, limiting our energy on a few events and focusing the majority of our time on a Listening/Kolot Campaign, "Kol Isha," with the women of PTS. The goal this year is to find what interests the women at PTS. We will be conducting several small group discussions and hope that you can join our upcoming conversations.

We do plan to continue the Gift Shop, Monthly Mah Jongg with Beth El Women, our Annual Evening Under the Sukkah and Rosh Hodesh Celebrations. Scroll down to our events and calendar!
