The Truth That Changed My Family Forever - Nissim Black

I went to my wife and I sat her down on the couch and I made sure that I sat on the other couch just in case anything went flying across the room. And I told her, I said, "Honey, I don't want to celebrate Christmas. I don't want to celebrate Easter." She said, "I don't want to be married." >> [laughter] >> And it was a very very like, you know, shocking thing for her. She knew something was cooking, but she didn't even want to ask what was going on with me over there with all those books open. She was just like, you know, she's like, "We just had a baby. Like, how can you do all this?" And baby was barely a couple weeks even, not even a week, when I when I told her that. I was so insensitive. But I had to tell the truth. And so my wife found us a place inside the Orthodox community. And about two and a half two and a half years after we had moved, not only me and my wife converted, but also my brother-in-law, who was my best friend since kindergarten, and my wife's sister, all four of us converted. Two and a half years after that, had a double wedding, and it was the most beautiful experience. And that is my story.
