Hineni: "Here I Am"

Women's Weekend Returns Jan 24 - 26, 2025

Celebrating Judaism, Women, and Friendship

All women ages 18 and above are invited to embark on a transformative weekend at the beautiful Brandeis Bardin Campus in Simi Valley to celebrate the strength of womanhood, intensify friendship, and reflect on Judaism and spirituality.

“I hope to strengthen our connections and nurture new friendships—something we need more now than ever—the true Power of Women.”

-Andrea Salisbury, Co-Chair

Starting on Friday afternoon, this year’s retreat, co-chaired by Eve Lunt and Andrea Salisbury, will feature an interactive and creative Shabbat service led by Amy Lipeles and songleader Dana Schneider-Chanzit. The weekend also promises a host of past favorites and new activities and workshops for all attendees to enjoy.

The weekend includes a two-night stay in cozy motel-style cottages, five Kosher meals, snacks, and will culminate in a festive Saturday night party. Each participant will also receive a Women’s Weekend 2025 commemorative t-shirt. Limited space is available. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this life-changing experience. Whether you come with friends or on your own, you are sure to make lifelong friendships this weekend.

“I have forged a new bond with at least one other woman at every Women’s Weekend.”

-Eve Lunt, Co-Chair
