Converting to Judaism

Welcoming Jews by Choice into our community is one of the great blessings of life at KI. Being surrounded by people who are falling in love with Jewish life is nothing short of magical — their wholehearted commitment has a way of helping the rest of us find the pulse in our own. Deep down, many of us sense that traditions asking to be honored are, in fact, worth honoring, and there’s something deeply moving about walking that path alongside someone choosing it for the first time.

Rabbi Hamilton would love to hear your story. He’ll walk this journey with you to find the path into Jewish life and commitment that fits you best, whether that’s personal instruction, classes, or small-group learning — and every conversation begins with genuine curiosity and care, never judgment.

Whatever brought you here, whether you’re just starting to explore or you’ve been considering this for years, you’re welcome exactly as you are, and we’d be honored to help you take the next step.

To take the first step, please email Rabbi Hamilton directly or complete the form below and he will reach out to you about converting to Judaism here in the Boston area.

The Jewish Discovery Institute is Boston’s resource for interfaith couples, families and individuals interested in learning about Conservative Judaism. We offer a wide variety of programs for interfaith couples, families and individuals interested in learning more about Judaism. From basic introduction experiences to in-depth conversion programs, from support groups to training seminars, we hope all of our programs add meaning, understanding, and comfort.

Many of the JDI’s classes are held at KI.  Check their website here for more information.
