mom2be – thank you very much
BP Totty – No, to the best of my knowledge no one in my family is jewish. My father’s family is Catholic and my mother’s family is best described as confused, but I’m relatively certain that no one has been jewish.
I have read some about the process of converting and know that it is a very serious undertaking. I have no issues with the restrictions, although I am not yet to the point where I want to jump into this… I am still in the learning about the religion stage.
As for my family, I have very little contact with my blood relations. My boyfriend is usually pretty accepting of my search, although it’s highly doubtful that he would also convert. I’m raising my young brother and he is not concerned with what I do either.
