WoTS Words

Our family of families really comes to mean even more as the High Holidays approach. Yes, you heard me! We’re already planning for the High Holidays! Since Rosh Hashanah arrives very early this year, September 9 to be specific, WoTS is beginning the coordination of this project now.

Each year, WoTS offer all Temple Sinai members the opportunity to send New Years greetings to other Temple families.

Often we get a frantic call the day before we begin signing the cards to ask if it’s too late to be included. Unfortunately, the answer is often yes. Punctuality is key to the success of this project.

Each year we perfect this project and we thought we’d show the fruits of our labor, by giving you some pointers in being able to fully participate in this wonderful endeavor.

Watch for the initial mailing to arrive in late July/early August. It will be a thick packet of all the family names of our Temple Sinai members.

Please return ALL SHEETS of the packet, with your name at the top of each page.

Please include your check with your packet and pay attention to the deadline.

We hope each family of the congregation sees this as a fantastic opportunity to reach out to those you feel close to, those you don’t see often enough, and those you may have just met.

So although we’ve just started working on our tans and going on vacations, we also are thinking of the new year!

Gift Shop Summer Hours

We will be open during the summer on most Wednesdays, from 11:00 AM until 2:00 PM, and before special events.

Call the Shop at 412-421-6787 to confirm that we will be open or to arrange a private shopping expedition. Cash and checks are accepted.

Beginning in June the Shop will offer registries for Bar and Bat Mitzvahs and Weddings. These are designed to assist shoppers and to enable celebrants to develop wish lists. Visit or call to learn more about these new services.

Gifts for all occasions for all ages are stocked. While the Shop exists to serve you, you are giving to the Temple by shopping there.

Remember, good things come in small shops!

WoTS Scholarship Application

The Women of Temple Sinai provides scholarships to our youth members and religious school educators. Past scholarship recipients have used the money to attend URJ camps, trips to Israel, and NFTY Mitzvah Corps. A guaranteed $250 scholarship is available for first-time applicants attending Reform Judaism events, camps, or trips. Our religious school educators can receive a scholarship if they are going to a program/trip that will advance their teaching skills and knowledge to better teach our children. 35 student scholarships and two religious school teacher scholarships were granted prior to 2010.
