Description
The Washington Institute for Conversion and the Study of Judaism, under the direction of Rabbi Bernice Weiss, offers individual counseling, private and group instruction, education, outreach, and support services, which meet the needs of all persons choosing Judaism. The Institute has created a comprehensive study program, utilizing textual materials on Jewish history, law, and rituals.
Jews by Choice, and those wishing to learn more about Judaism, will use these textual materials but will focus primarily upon the Biblical Text. These studies are designed to fully integrate the Jew by Choice into the spiritual community, thus enabling him or her to become an active participant in Jewish life.
