We are a Messianic Jewish Congregation in Southern California
What are We about
We are a Messianic Jewish congregation located in the San Fernando Valley, Southern California. We believe that Yeshua (Hebrew for Jesus) is the promised Jewish Messiah. We provide a Messianic congregation where those who are Jewish or have families who are Jewish can continue to live out their Jewishness but with faith in Messiah Yeshua. Also, we provide an opportunity for both Jews and non-Jews alike to learn about the Jewish basis of our faith in Yeshua. As well, we provide a gathering for those with a love for our Jewish people and the modern-day state of Israel and who want to see them be blessed by coming to know and follow Messiah Yeshua.
You are welcome
Both Jewish and non-Jewish believers in Messiah Yeshua are welcome at our services! Also, those who are considering the Messianic claims of Yeshua are welcome to come and inquire as well, with no pressure or obligation.

Every Saturday morning, 10:30am – around 10:55am we have a Torah Service (with chanting of a portion of that week’s Parashah reading with a brief Drash (or teaching), and most of our Jewish liturgy.

Someone doesn’t have to know Hebrew to come to our services, though we hope to help you learn some Hebrew. We also have a liturgy CD to help learn our Hebrew liturgy we do. We plan to restart our Shabbat School (for grade school age children) and a Youth class. Apart from the Pandemic, normally the Shabbat services are followed by an oneg in Holland Hall.
