In a time where the majority of Israelis want more pluralistic views on important lifecycle events, such as marraige*, our work at The Daniel Centers for Progressive Judaism is even more important. We work hard to help bring a more pluralistic view of Judaism to all of Israel.

We have the largest Reform conversion school in Israel which is also the only Reform conversion school that is accepted by the government and the Ministry of Interior. This allows anyone wanting to join the Jewish faith a way to do so in a way that better fits their pluralistic lifestyle. We also offer services for every step of a person’s life. Our head rabbi, Meir Azari has officiated more than 2,000 weddings, including weddings for same-sex couples, and there are more than 250 Bar and Bat mitzvah ceremonies per year held at Beit Daniel. We also offer the Mishkenot Guest House that has housed over 60,000 visitors in its time, including numerous birthright trips.

Overall, The Daniel Centers for Progressive Judaism focuses on bringing the pluralistic Jewish lifestyle to Israelis in Tel Aviv and around the country. Want to help support our efforts? Donate here!
