Sundays

“And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”

— Hebrews 10:24-25

Sunday Gatherings are a great time to learn more about our church community, to build relationships, and above all, to worship the Lord! Our congregation is an intergenerational mix of Jewish and non-Jewish people who have found the redemption God has provided in the Person and work of Jesus the Messiah. Each week we gather together on Sundays to be reminded of God’s goodness, to be encouraged by His faithfulness, and to celebrate His work in our lives throughout the week. Every Sunday we also observe communion to remind ourselves of Messiah’s sacrifice on our behalf.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Worship & Liturgy

We worship the Lord through contemporary worship music, classic Christian hymns, and accessible messianic worship songs. Our gatherings consider Jewish liturgical elements within a more familiar evangelical worship gathering in a way that is mutually beneficial to Jew and Gentile alike.

Celebration & Remembrance
We hold Messiah-exalting celebrations of Israel’s appointed festivals (see Leviticus 23), as well the inclusion of specific moments from the traditional Church calendar.
Teaching & Preaching
We spend time in both Testaments of the Bible, considering the Scriptures through the eyes of the original audiences, while still encouraging people towards a whole life response to the present day implications of each text.
Fellowship & Family
Following our worship gathering, we share a fellowship meal together, and we’d love for you to join us! We’d encourage you to bring a meal and/or side to share with our church family. Out of respect and honor for the religious convictions of our Jewish friends (see Romans 14), we ask that you abstain from bringing food that mixes meat and dairy, as well as food with pork or shellfish.
Next Gen
We firmly believe the Lord calls us to invest in the next generation (see Dt 6:7), inviting them into a personal and living faith in Messiah, and it’s our heart to equip parents on that journey. During Sunday gatherings, we offer nursery for children ages newborn to three years on the first and third Sundays of each month. For children between the ages of 4 and 12, we have sermon activity sheets and family discussion questions available so that parents can have a resource to meaningfully connect with their children throughout the week about the Lord. We encourage students ages 13 and older to not only participate in the worship gathering alongside their parents, but to get plugged into a student Growth Group and/or ministry team.
