[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP! My husband and I talked about this a lot before getting married (I'm Jewish, he was an agnostic raised Methodist. He later converted but in the context of those conversations we were assuming we would be interfaith) For me, the biggest goal was normalizing Judaism and building a positive Jewish identity. For us that has meant PJ library, celebrating holidays with extended family when possible, Jewish preschool, and joining a synagogue and showing up for the various kid oriented activities. I think you absolutely could do this with JCC as well. That said, if you plan on B'nai Mitzvot for your kids you may want to find a synagogue though, while you still have lots of time to try different options. Reform congregations are generally very inclusive and honestly I think Conservative ones are much different on this issue than when I was growing up. In either case no one will mind if you are an atheist:)[/quote]
