Seeking Religious Education

Hi, N..

We belong to Congregation Beth Torah. There are many interfaith families that belong there (including us) and the Rabbi has classes for the questioning and curious...I think they are on Wed night. We are pretty small and the Rabbi is not judgemental. There are also many reform synagogues around as well...Adat Chevarim is small and they just got a new Rabbi(I heard she is fabulous).

Don't be embarrassed...many of us that were raised solely Jewish have fallen out of religion or don't remember much. I find when my son asks questions I have to pull from the recesses of my brain...it's okay. Children have a way of making it all come full-circle somehow...

Good luck.

Feel free to e-mail me if you need more info.

You might be interested to know there is an in-between.
I have good friends who are Messianic. Basically they live by Jewish law, but believe that Christ is Lord.
They go to a small church that is on Campbell Rd near UT Dallas. It's called Eitz Chaim Congregation.
I am a Baptist - but I have gone to their church on special occasions (like their wedding shower) and it was very interesting.

Good luck in your search to find what's right for you!

I am most familiar with the two large reform Temple's here in town. Shalom and Emanu-El. I belong to and know Emanu-El has a program where you can take courses. I did it and many people there came from mixed backgrounds. There are many inter-faith families. I would call and ask to speak to a Rabbi.
If you are uncomfortable with the "largeness" let the Rabbi give you some ideas.
