Join Sisters from all over the world coming together to celebrate Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

After many conversations with local rabbi and other Jewish community members, the Sisters have decided that we will Saint Justice Ginsburg on October 2, 2020, 7pm. There was a lot of deliberation about whether Sainting her was appropriate or not, and we feel it is. It’s our highest honor and how we as an Order canonize our (s)heros.

The Sisters are not a religious organization, and our organization is made up of people representing many religions, spiritual practices, and faiths. We do recognize and respect that RBG was proudly Jewish, and we do not feel by Sainting her that we are in any way disrespecting her faith.

We love, cherish and honor Justice Ginsburg for her countless contributions. We affectionately will Saint her as “Saint Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Mensch of Magistrates, Mamele of Justice, and Tzadik Notorious RBG of the Divine Striking Dissent.” 

 Hosted by Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, Inc.
