Who are the TentWeavers? What does it mean to weave ourselves and others into the fabric of the Jewish tent? Rabbi Michael Gilboa, Rabbi Juan Mejia, Rabbi Esther Hugenholtz and Rabbi Noah Ferro discuss our new name and format.

1 out of 6 American Jews enter Judaism by choice. We live rich, meaningful, and fully Jewish lives, but we also face unique challenges and unique blessings. We never lose our distinctiveness, even after we convert, and we would never want to. Our journeys and our perspectives give strength to the weave that is the Jewish people. Converts to Judaism make up a distinct tribe within our people, and TentWeavers aims to speak to this group and for this group as we navigate our lives within the rich constellation of Jewish identities.
