Becoming a Jew-ish Grandparent

It has been some time since I last posted in this blog.

OK, it has been a LONG time.

I have a couple of excellent excuses.

I was sick for several weeks. Nothing serious, just persistent, and very fatiguing. My doctor has been trying to figure it out.

The other is that my daughter-in-law, Rabbi Rachel Goldenberg, had a conversation, with David Raphael. David and Lee Handler have founded the Jewish Grandparenting Network.

Rachel told David about our unusual family. Perhaps there are other Methodist ministers who have a Rabbi daughter-in-law, but I don’t know any personally.  Or any other Christian clergy that fit that description.

David got in touch with me through her. We talked. He asked me if I would write about our experience as the Christian grandparents in an interfaith family. I agreed.

I plan three posts on their website. It’s harder than it looks. In a sense, I am speaking for a number of people, Jacquie not least of all. I want it to be right.

This is the first one. It explains the dash in the next-to-last word in the title. Click here to read it.
