Reply To: Where to start becoming Jewish when family roots discovered

I do want to add, while I think you should make contact with the Rabbi asap, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are probably not the best time to do it, not because they arent important, they are VERY important, but Because The Rabbi might be a little more busier than normal and might not be able to give you as much attention as you need and I would not want you to get turned off because the rabbi didnt give as much attention as you need because he was busy with lots of things during the high holy days and it might seem as if he was blowing you off, when he wasnt.
