InterfaithFamily empowers people in interfaith relationships — individuals, couples, families and their children — to engage in Jewish life and make Jewish choices, and encourages Jewish communities to welcome them. InterfaithFamily/Philadelphia, part of InterfaithFamily’s “Your Community Initiative,” offers a variety of programs locally, including: workshops for interfaith couples to discuss how to have religious traditions in their lives together; online classes for parents in interfaith families who want to explore bringing Jewish traditions into their family life; and popular programs such as our “Cocktails and Conversation” for young adults and “Challah and Conversation.” Additionally, InterfaithFamily/Philadelphia’s staff provides free consultations; connections to welcoming organizations, professionals and programs; and an officiation referral service that helps people in interfaith relationships find Jewish clergy to officiate or co-officiate at their weddings and other life-cycle events.
