Intro to Judaism/Conversion
An Open Temple and Academy for Jewish Religion/LA collaboration, Soul Journey/Intro to Judaism offers the only trans-denominational conversion class in Los Angeles. For those interested in conversion, the class is accepted by the Sandra Caplan Beit Din. A 22 week program with classes offered both at Open Temple House and virtually on Zoom, students take a deep dive into Judaism through the lens of its history, spirituality, text, community, law, gender, interfaith, holidays, thought and more.
Instructors: Rabbi Lori Shapiro, Muriel Dance, PhD, BCC, Rabbi Avivah W. Erlick, Rabbi Janet Madden, PhD, Tamar Frankiel, PhD, Rabbi Lisa Bock
