We are a group of Jewish and Gentile Believers in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) as the Jewish Messiah for all nations. The rabbi/pastor holds a double ordination as a Messianic rabbi and a Baptist pastor. He graduated from Talbot School of Theology with a Master of Divinity in Messianic Jewish Studies. We are a teaching congregation with deep teachings and sermons for those who want to grow in their understanding of Messiah. We are a house congregation and services are informal and friendly.

Service Times
We meet on Saturday nights at 6 pm. On the first Saturday of the month we watch a movie after services. On the second Saturday of the month we hear about martyrs. On the third Shabbat of the month we have a fellowship meal before services (dinner at 6 pm, services at 7 pm) and the fourth Saturday of the month we celebrate communion. Our service is Messianic with some prayers and songs in Hebrew. However, you do not need to understand Hebrew–everything recited in Hebrew is also recited in English.

Messianic congregations emphasize support for Israel and the Israel Jewish people in general. They have found that non-Jews who are attracted to Messianic congregations will often express a sense of having been "called" to be part of one. Others have shared that they receive a form of teaching that they haven't been able to find in other congregations. Messianic congregations are the same as a Christian church in the sense that they support and teach the basic beliefs of evangelical Christianity. They are different because they do this in a Jewish way, with Jewish liturgy, music and other important features of Jewish community life. This adds a dimension not found in other Christian churches.
