Conversión en Israel
BH
Recibi este mensaje de una chica que estuvo en Israel
averiguando algunos programas de conversión. Puedo
garantizar que la chica lo hace de buena intención.

WARNING!
I was tempted to put a smile after this word, as it
seemed quite strong, but I decided the situation was
serious enough that I should not convey a false message
by adding a smiley...
I have done a lot of research on these kibbutzim, and
have visited Yavne when I went to Israel last month.
Not even to consider the fact that the classes given at
Sde Eliahu and Saad (which is only a few kilometres
away from the Gaza strip, btw) are only in Hebrew, one
ought to be cautious about these programmes. I have
been warned by numerous people, including the Ashkenazi
Chieff Rabbi of Jerusalem himself, that a conversion
through this type of organisations may not be
recognised by a number of Batei Dinim.
It\'s a personal choice. It\'s up to each person to
determine whether he\'she feels comfortable with these
programmes. The kibbutzim belong to a religious kibbutz
movement, as far as I\'ve been able to find. The
conversions (for Yavne, that is) are done by the BD of
Merkaz Shapira, near Ashqelon. Maybe someone here will
be able to say whether it is a valued BD or not. It is
based on these elements that one should make a
decision - that, and that person\'s inner feeling about
it. In any case, it is not a decision anyone should
rush into.
If anyone is interested in knowing more about my
*personal* conclusions on Yavne, please feel free to
email me.
