Lifecycle support, questions of Jewish practice, and a place to turn.
Rabbi Halevi's work includes Jewish lifecycle services, including funerals and guidance for families facing loss. The first conversation should establish the family's circumstances, the location, and the rabbinic support being requested.
He also works with requests concerning mezuzah checking and sofrut-related matters. Describe the item and the work you wish to discuss so the appropriate scope and arrangements can be clarified.
For individuals exploring Jewish conversion, Rabbi Halevi offers guidance and accompaniment in coordination with an appropriate beit din. The conversion process and its decisions remain the responsibility of the beit din; he does not independently conduct or approve conversions. The specific arrangements must be confirmed before beginning.
For a funeral-related inquiry, include the city, timing, and whether a synagogue or local coordinator is already involved. For mezuzah checking, describe which items you would like the rabbi to discuss with you.
