About the process 

Conversion is not something we take casually or lightly. It is a spiritual transformation that is life-altering in practice and identity. Judaism welcomes the conversion of those who are fully committed to live a rigorous Jewish lifestyle, observe Jewish law, subscribe to Jewish beliefs, aspire to Jewish values and ideals, and participate and contribute to the Jewish community and people. While our Beth Din is eager to help candidates realize their goal in a timely fashion, performing conversion requires evaluation and deliberation and is ultimately an awesome responsibility which takes time and patience. We look forward to getting to know you and assisting you, if appropriate, in becoming a proud Jew.
