All sincere requests are considered.  The candidate must take into account the fact that he or she will be asked to integrate Jewish practices into their daily lives, will become a part of our congregation, and must expand their knowledge of Judaism so they can lead a Jewish life. The minimum study period is 12 to 14 months. A meeting with the rabbi is required before starting the conversion process.  The candidate will then start a Mekhina, or preparation course, for two months during which he or she will learn to read and write Hebrew. For twelve months, the candidate will follow Judaism classes, which detail the major elements of Jewish history and life, explain the holidays and practices in terms of their evolution through history, and explore Jewish literature, symbols and ethics. At the end of the process, the candidate is presented to a Beit-Din of the French F\u00e9d\u00e9ration du Juda\u00efsme Lib\u00e9ral, made up of three rabbis who verify his or her knowledge, assimilation into the Jewish people and desire to live a rich and full Jewish life. Once the candidate affirms that he or she is ready to conform to the ways of our Tradition \u2013 kabbalat ol mitzvot (acceptance of the yoke of the commandments) \u2013 the Beit Din welcomes the candidate as part of the people of Israel. For a man, circumcision follows, and for all candidates, under the care of the Beit-Din, a tevilah is undertaken in a mikve. Our Beit-Din\u2019s conversion certificate is accepted by the French Jewish Agency, the Israeli government and progressive congregations around the world. We recognized all conversion certificates issued by a qualified authority. Conversion for marriage is welcome and possible as long as the candidate develops his or her own interest in Judaism.
