Path of Return
52-Week Orthodox Conversion Course
A structured educational cycle, not a self-conversion program. Completing these lessons does not make a person Jewish, guarantee acceptance, or set a conversion date. The aim is a Jewish life: faithfulness to Torah, competent daily practice, one full cycle of the year, growing Hebrew, and belonging in an Orthodox congregation.
Only a qualified Beit Din judges readiness and procedure.
