Introduction to Judaism is an engaging multi-session course for anyone interested in exploring Jewish life.

Open to all, this course is designed for you, whether you are part of a Jewish+ or interfaith couple, an adult raising Jewish children, a spiritual seeker, considering conversion, or a Jew who wants a meaningful adult learning experience. Our programs affirm people from all backgrounds. Topics covered include holidays, life cycle celebrations, core beliefs, prayer, the Bible and other sacred texts, history, antisemitism and the Holocaust, Israel, the North American Jewish experience, and the diversity of the Jewish people today. Wherever you are on your journey with Judaism, this class is designed to be a safe and welcoming place for you to explore.

Hosted by a variety of local (Delaware) Jewish congregations, representing a range of expressions of Jewish life, Introduction to Judaism meets primarily online, with some in-person gatherings. Classes reflect an open and inclusive approach and are taught by rabbis, cantors, and Jewish educators from a variety of different Jewish perspectives.

Cost: $100 due at registration (scholarships are available).
