"Jewishconversion" could refer to missionaries succeeding at converting #Jews to their faith.

"#Giyur" works only for those looking for that hashtag, which would be very few people, and mostly Orthodox. (Orthodox is cool of course but most of us here are not of that denomination & don't use that term.)

How about #conversiontojudaism ?

One of the topics could be, what are some good books for those learning about #Judaism, for those considering conversion?

Synagogues are encountering some people who turned out to have purchased a conversion to Judaism from a website. Judaism, of any denomination, doesn’t recognize online conversions-for-purchase. What do we need to know about this? How can we help people obtain real conversions to Judaism?

Yesterday I sat on a beit din (rabbinical court) that welcomed 2 new Jews to the Jewish People. #WhatRabbisDo #Gerut #ConversionToJudaism

So, so happy.

Interesting opinion piece about #ConversionToJudaism in the Times of Israel. I think the writer is correct but of course I would think that. #Mazeldon #Gerut

Who decides who is Jewish enough in Germany?

Responding to a Berlin cantor's disparagement of German converts: The case for supporting newcomers to Judaism is made by Jewish History as well as Moses Maimonides
