“When a convert comes to be converted, one receives them with an open hand so as to bring them under the wings of the Divine Presence.”

Vayikra Rabbah 2:9

SAMS helps people to convert to Judaism through the offices of the European Masorti Bet Din.

Conversion is a big step, but at the same time, for anyone who is serious about it, it is our pleasure and duty to provide help and encouragement in every way we can – and there are a number of members who have successfully converted to Judaism with SAMS’ help in recent years.

Converting to Judaism cannot be taken lightly, and it does not happen quickly. We do not set out to make it easy, but we do set out to make it achievable, meaningful and rewarding. For us, the point of conversion is not to be Jewish, but to become Jewish: the journey, not just the destination, has to be worthwhile.
