Jews in SPACE(hey)

fellow Jew here. L'chaim! <3

Well, hello! I wasn't sure whether this topic would get views or replies because of antisemitism being on the rise but I'm glad there is someone out here like me. L'chiam!

Black and Jewish here, was raised Orthodox now reform. 

shalom!

Hello! Nice to meet you!

Shalom! Nice to meet you all :)

Hello, Anda!

Hi, Reform/Reconstructionist here!

The more the merrier!

Anybody got plans for Purim? It would be cool if I could find a Magilla reading on a zoom or a Facebook live or something. Not sure whether I'll dress up or anything but still something to do.

Hi, I finished converting novemeber last year! 

Thanks, Rei, for that link I'll go check it out! And welcome, Bella! Mazal Tov on your conversion!

I can't get used to virtual meetings. It's too stressful and I don't do them when I don't really have to. Before the pandemic I used to go to Moishe House. But I don't think I can participate in the virtual lecture this year. It would make me too anxious.

I haven't tried to attend any virtual services yet. I left the schul I grew up in because the Rabbi was a scumbag and yet he is still employed for another 5.5 years per the contract.

It's good to know I'm not alone 

A lot of the people in my weekly knitting group are Jewish and since Purim is on the 26th we are going to have a festive evening on the 25th with drinking and groggers.

Secularish/ethnic jew here! :) Glad to have found this thread.

Welcome! Do people have plans to gather for Passover? Not that I want to think about it. (I don't clean my house for it). I will have my second dose of the Moderna vaccine on 26th so I don't know how I will be feeling come seder.

Wishing you all a Shana Tova! A happy and healthy, peaceful and prosperous 5782!

You too! It's good to be firmly into 5782...

hi! i was raised in a chabad community. my household was never strict though, my parents only became orthodox around my bat mitzvah and none of my other family are orthodox. i want to get into reconstructionism, humanism, and judaism-informed communalism as well :3

Welcome, rhubarb!

Happy Hanukkah peeps! Hope everyone has enjoyed the holiday with some latkes and candlelighting!

conservative convert here! chag purim sameach everyone :)

it's been my dream for so long to convert to Judaism, beautiful way of life :)

shalom! i was raised in a non jewish house but find judaism really interesting and wish to convert someday (srry for the bad english)

if someone if online,nice knowing others are here as well :3

@sobb1ng: start by reading on My Jewish Learning, and then reach out to a local Rabbi to schedule up a meeting. The Rabbi will be able to direct you to more information, open up learning opportunities, and answer any questions. They'll also be able to give you a sort of overview on what the process looks like.

howdy, i'm in the process of converting (reform) myself, i was actually raised in a Christian family. happy hanukkah to you and yours! ^_^

hello from Isreal i would love to help and teach people our ways as i am also looking to having friends here :3

it's a bit lonely when your'e something "diffrent" such as this and such lol

tbh i didn't knew that there was such a group

shalom!! ^_^ im a jew and a timtum!

Not a Jew but learning Yiddish

shalom :) i'm a sephardic agnostic reform jew

hi!! :D im a convert, its been a crazy long process and im still not done yet lol just cuz life has been crazy and never been settled down long enough with one rabbi to be able to get stuff sorted. i just recently moved to illinois and theres a recon shul right there in chicago and i was like :O cuz ive never seen one around before, tho im into recon and humanistic.. i still need to make a day to go visit but apparently the rabbi there is a lesbian..!!! so exciting to meet a shul with rabbi(s) who have experience with queer stuff, bc i want a nb conversion and its made finding the right rabbi so hard.. til now! <3

Hey! I was raised Reform, now somewhere like machmir Modern Orthodox and leaning toward Chabad chassidus. Just trying to figure out a happy balance while keeping halacha :)

shalom 

Heil Hitler!!!
