Abraham Carmel, Noted Convert to Judaism, to Address Forum Abraham Carmel, the first Cath- olic priest since the 9th Century to enter Judaism, will be the first speaker in the Forum 1968 series to be presented by the cultural committee of the Flint Jewish Community Council. Carmel, author of "So Strange My Path," will speak 8:30 p.m. Jan. 14 at Cong. Beth Israel.

Carmel, born in 1911 in Lon- don as Kenneth Charles Cox, was received into the Catholic Church during his youth and was ordained a priest in 1943. Carmel's spiritual journey to- ward Judaism climaxed a long and agonizing period of doubt concern- ing the divinity of Jesus; he fi- nally discovered in Judaism what he had been seeking. Five years of probation culminated in his ac- ceptance by the London court of the chief rabbi. Since 1953, Carmel has been an observent Jew, and from 1959 to 1961 he lived and worked in Israel. He is a graduate of the school of education, Yeshiva University, and is now a member of the English faculty at the Yeshiva of Flathush in Brooklyn. : Linda Ma rilyn SAG Shur, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Saul Shur of Miller Rd..
