Jews By Choice Community Gathering

Jews By Choice Community Kick Off (2)

Join Tribe 12’s drop-in group for anyone who has chosen to be Jewish—whether you completed conversion long ago, are mid-process, or exploring the conversion process. We’ll connect through discussions plus small group conversations in a welcoming space focused on this shared journey we’ve all embarked on. Snacks will be served!

The cohort will intentionally focus on individuals who fit the following description: “people who have chosen to become Jewish.” This includes:
– Those who have completed the conversion process
– Those who are mid-conversion
– Those who plan to convert but have not yet started

At this time this cohort is limited exclusively to people who are Jews by choice. While we deeply value the contributions of Jewish-from-birth friends and significant others, the focus of this cohort is to create a safe and intimate space for converts to share and connect over their unique experiences.

The session will include:
– Group-Wide Discussion: A chance for everyone to share their experiences and reflections in a large group setting.
– Small Groups: Breaking off into smaller groups of participants who are at similar points in their Jewish journey.
– Paired Conversations: Complementary pairing of participants, matching those who are further along in their journey with those earlier in the process, to foster meaningful dialogue and mentorship.

Tribe 12 connects people in their 20s/30s to Jewish life and community in Philadelphia today so they will choose to stay connected tomorrow. We welcome people who identify as Jewish, whose partner is Jewish, or who are exploring Judaism.
