Give us two hours a week for eighteen weeks and we'll give you practically everything you need to know to function in the Jewish world: Jewish history, lifecycle celebrations, ceremonies, events, theology, Bible, prayer and much more. The course is designed to be an entry and re-entry point for individuals from all backgrounds, Jewish, and non-Jewish, to participate more comfortably in Jewish life. Sponsored by the Union for Reform Judaism, this class may also serve as the first step in conversion to Judaism.
