You have kindly and patiently introduced me to a whole new world.  I am very grateful.

Those of us joining the Jewish family are on a journey and becoming part of the collective memory.  In many ways those of us who are not yet Jewish but are on a journey, share the journey of those ancient people as they became part of a unified group.  We are moving in a direction that will bring us into the family of the Jewish people.

Through out the class, I tried to observe and learn as much as I could, but in the beginning I felt like an outsider.  As the class went on I realized, with your help, that it is not how much you know about something but how much you feel about something.  As I complete this course, I truly feel that I have become a member of the Jewish faith and all that it encompasses.

This course challenged me to continue learning more about the Torah and the Jewish community.

 Thank you so much for offering this course.  I am going to recommend this class to my friends in interfaith relationships.

 The rabbis who taught Intro were excellent in their approach to each topic, every person and all questions.  I really enjoyed the very open approach.

This class has been so enlightening and enjoyable, I wish there was an Intro to Judaism II.

I felt like I learned something new in every class.  The class also helped facilitate conversation between me and my fiancé in topics we hadn’t thought about.

It was a very open setting.  I felt totally comfortable in my “lack of knowledge” because I was so eager to learn.  Everything was truly great.

The Intro to Judaism class more than fulfilled my expectations.  This was a thoughtful and insightful journey into Judaism and it was a pleasure to learn from this Rabbi.  I would highly recommend taking the class with your spouse or partner, as it brings up so many discussion points that you can take home after each session.
