Ahuva Gray (née Delores Gray) is a Jewish convert from Baptism. Born to a working class family, she worked for 23 years as a flight attendant.[1]
Ahuva Gray began to doubt Christianity when she discovered discrepancies in the New Testament. This discovery began a process of searching for the truth. Eventually she found Judaism and converted to Orthodox Judaism.[2] As she began studying the Jewish texts, she believed that the Torah made the most sense to her. In 1996, she gave up her position as a Christian minister and become an Orthodox Jew. She has written a book about this journey entitled My Sister, the Jew. She is also a lecturer.
She currently lives in Bayit VeGan, Jerusalem.
