Our vision is to be a dynamic Messianic Jewish Community

  • Messianic in that we desire to be truly Messiah-centered, believing that God sent Yeshua as Messiah to fulfill the historic hopes and destiny of Israel and that He is focal point of the Jewish Scriptures. Colossians 1:15-20

  • Jewish in that we seek the good of our people and embrace our common culture, interests and hopes. We seek to commit to, and grow in, a lifestyle of faith called Biblical Judaism; Reveal first to the people of Israel, and also to the world, the true identity of the Messiah Yeshua; Support Israel and the Jewish people in opposing all acts of hatred against them; Call the brothers and sisters in the Body of Messiah to the proper understanding of G-d's covenant promises to Israel and their restoration.

  • Community in that we truly desire to be mishpochah (family). We want to grow a faith community where Jews embrace and strengthen Jewish identity and heritage as believers in Messiah Yeshua. Our primary way of fulfilling this part of our vision is through Havurah groups.

  • We hope to share our faith with others, and to see that every person Jewish and Gentile in Northeastern Ohio has the opportunity, by the power of God's Spirit, to hear the words of Yeshua and see His works. Jews and Gentiles have been made echad (one) in their embrace of Yeshua as G-d's atoning Messiah who will reign on David's throne. Gentiles embrace Israel, prioritize a Jewish expression of their faith, and serve alongside Jewish believers. Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the Good News, since it is God’s powerful means of bringing salvation to everyone who keeps on trusting, to the Jew especially, but equally to the Gentile.
