I've done my research, I know that actual process, but what is the best way to go about becoming a part of the Jewish community? What would be the best services to go to? Should I take a class? Obviously I could look up any synagogue's schedule on line, but what service is the most attended? I just don't know how to really get into the community, can anyone help me out?

Have you been circumcised yet?

The easiest way would be to marry a Jewish man.

Services are generally on Saturday morning. Go when there is a bar Mitzi because there will usually be other strangers there.

If you find a bar Mitzi scheduled on a Friday night, you could also choose that service.

Or, how about just calling the synagogue office and ask them.

Although I do not belong to them, I believe you could try contacting your local Jewish association. Google for "Jewish" and you'll get lots of answer.

a course of convert ion but you have to ask in the synagogue about this topic, they will have the best answer for your question about being part of the Jewish community.

A Messianic Jew? Believe the following, or at least visit a Messianic Jewish Congregation regarding the beliefs that:

Anachnu minimminimmunah shleymah:

That the entire Bible, the Tanach and Brit Chadasha (Old and New Testaments) is the only divinely inspired, infallible, and eternal Word of God, which applies to today's world as at the time of its creation. (II Timothy 3:16; I Peter 1:20-21)

That the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is One, Echad, a complex unity that exists and has revealed Himself to mankind as our Father in Heaven; Yeshua Ha'Moshiach, His Son; and the Ruach Ha'Kodesh, the Holy Spirit. (Is. 48:16; I John 5:7)

That Yeshua is the Messiah of Israel; is the Word of God revealed to mankind in the flesh; was born of a virgin; had a ministry on earth; died on a tree for our sins; was resurrected three days following His death; and ascended to Heaven to intercede on our behalf to the Father. (Zech. 14:9; Luke 24:44-47)

That the Jewish nation, Israel, is God's Chosen People. God made an eternal covenent with them regarding the Messiah and the Land of Israel. (Deut. 7:6-10)

Jews and Gentiles must both be cleansed of sin by the shed blood of Yeshua the Messiah. Jews who accept Yeshua remain Jews and non-Jews who accept Yeshua both become Born Again in the Spirit, and remain Jews and non-Jews respectively. They both join the Body of Messiah and inherit eternal life. (Eph 2:11-13)

Salvation from eternal separation from God and the forgiveness of sin can only be achieved through faith in Yeshua and His atonement of blood. (Rom. 10:9; I Thess. 1:10)

That Jewish followers of Yeshua should maintain their cultural, ethnic, and Biblical identities by remaining faithful to their heritage. Jewish Believers remain a part of Israel while becoming part of the Body of Messiah.

That salvation and a right relationship with God is achieved only through grace and faith, not the works of the Law. The Law is God-given for moral instruction for both Jews and non-Jews, and a distinct national/ethnic identity for Israel. The Law, while not essential for Salvation, is still an important part of following God's will and living in His presence. Faith in Yeshua, who fulfilled the Law, does not mean that the Law is no longer relevant in our lives. (Deut. 30:11-20; Deut. 6:20-25; Ps. 19:7-14; Matt. 5:17-19; Rom. 3:27-31; 6:23)

That the nation of Israel is Biblically ordained by God and those who stand with the Nation will be blessed. (Gen. 12:1-3; Is. 11)

Please avoid those who deceitfully call themselves "messianic Jews" or "Jews for Jesus." They are Christians pretending to be Jews in order to entire others into worshiping Jesus. You are very welcome to participate in the Jewish community. While you're learning about Judaism, I recommend a Reform congregation. Call about times for services and other activities. Friday night services are generally the most attended unless, as Eddie said, they are having a bar/bat Mitzi on Saturday morning.

If your city has a large Jewish population, another option is to attend events at the Jewish Community Center. They will also have fliers available from local synagogues.
