Discover the diverse range of groups we offer and join the one that resonates with you.
Sociable Seniors
Sociable Seniors is TI’s fun-loving group for members and community friends 60+. Bring a friend!
Years ago, Temple friends began meeting together as a group every two or three months, with a variety of different kinds of programs planned — often lunch or brunch, speakers, games, performances, etc. Food and Fun! Our goal was and still is to provide a light program that will be enjoyable for everyone, plus an opportunity for members of Temple to casually visit, discuss and socialize. We invite members of our Temple community, as well as friends who might not yet be Temple members. Our targeted group is men, women, couples, singles — ages (approximately!) 60+ — we’re happy to be with you. We also welcome newcomers and those who have not attended our gatherings recently to join us — no one is a stranger!
Sisterhood
Temple Israel Sisterhood is affiliated with Women of Reform Judaism and invites you to join us for only $44 per year and become a member of an international network of over 100,000 members. New members to Temple Israel are extended a complimentary one-year membership to Sisterhood.
Sisterhood members serve our Temple Israel community with their time, talent and treasures. Sisterhood members are a vital part of our congregation and host monthly programs, provide assistance to Shorashim (religious school), run the Judaica Shop, provide Shabbat onegs and help celebrate holidays and milestones in our Temple Israel family.
Whether you are single or married, with or without children, born Jewish, a Jew by Choice, or married to someone who is Jewish… Without you we are one woman short. We invite YOU to join us!
Brotherhood
Temple Israel Brotherhood provides camaraderie and community for men and women of all ages in the congregation. Brotherhood also provides many services for our congregation, from High Holiday ushering, to building our sukkah, to sponsoring picnics for Shorashim Religious School students and their families. Brotherhood projects include interfaith activities, a blood drive in conjunction with the American Red Cross, and numerous Sunday breakfasts where guest speakers with cultural, religious, or civic messages educate and engage the Temple community. All men who are members of the Temple are invited to become members of Brotherhood. We welcome your fellowship!
Temple Israel Brotherhood is the “service arm” of our Temple. The members of Brotherhood provide many services for our congregation, from High Holyday ushering to sponsoring picnics for the Religious School students and their families.

All Temple members are eligible for membership.
Young Jewish Professionals
Are you interested in the greater young adult community? Temple Israel collaborates with other Jewish organizations locally, such as the Jewish Federation of Tulsa, Tulsa Tomorrow, and Moishe Pod. The Young Jewish Adult Facebook group is a great way to connect with other peers, as well learning about peer led events, programs, and activities.
