My journal about my conversion to Judaism. |
| I started writing my conversion story in June 2023, even though it started before then. It will not be in chronological order as I remember things from the past that brought me to this point in my life. My decision to convert was not an easy one. I grew up Pentecostal. I watched my grandma speak in tongues. My aunt played keyboard in the church band. I used to attend church (a member of a Baptist church for many years) 3 to 4 times a week. I did not start my journey of healing after my divorce and expect to end up here. However, my desire and work to grow closer to G-d has left me no doubt or question about where I am now. I have no hesitation in my conversion to Judaism. This is my story of leaving Christianity and becoming a part of a people that I will be able to, one day, proudly say that I am also. A Jew. |
| Tomorrow, my kitchen will be koshered. I have almost no dishes and my cupboards and fridge are empty. I will not be able to use my kitchen until the mikvah. My friend B offered to let me use her kitchen and she would turn on the stove for me. I'm hoping that there isn't a long time between my kitchen being koshered and going to the mikvah. I will get tired of eating out, and imposing on others (even when offered) will get to be a burden for them and I'll feel bad. For some reason, I thought koshering my kitchen came after the mikvah, not that things have happened the way I thought they would. Life hasn't gone exactly (or at all) like I thought it would. My life is weird. G-d, I still trust you and love you. |
