A Messianic Jewish Congregation |
Our congregation's name, "Tsemach Adonai," is Hebrew for "Branch (or shoot) of the Lord," as referred to in Isaiah 4:2:
"In that day the Branch of the L-rd shall be beautiful and glorious; and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and appealing for those of Israel who have escaped."
Kehilat Tsemach Adonai is one of a growing worldwide family of Messianic Jewish kehilot that serve Yeshua HaMashiach (Hebrew name for Jesus, the Messiah). Messianic Judaism rekindles the spirit of the first century Jewish community of Nazarenes, who followed Yeshua and believed in him as the long-awaited One. Messianic Judaism is a Torah-based Judaism grounded in the Bible.

 Kehilat Tsemach Adonai is under the covering of the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations (UMJC). Our core values are consistent with both the UMJC and the mainstream of Messiah's Body. We include all believers in our congregation, Jewish and non-Jewish. |

You can tell a lot about a congregation not only by reading about it, but by observing it. That way, you can discern what its values are. At Kehilat Tsemach Adonai, we place an emphasis on "kehilah" (Hebrew for congregation).
We enjoy getting together not only for Shabbatot, festivals and other holidays, but for lifecycle events, birthdays and other social activities. We even like getting together informally when there's no particular reason!
Here are some photos of recent joyous events in our congregation.

Shabbat Morning Services at Tsemach Adonai |
|
Weekly Shabbat services are held at 10:30am and generally conclude at about 12:45pm. Kiddush and hamotzi (blessing over wine and bread) follows immediately after the service in our upstairs facility which is then followed by a potluck meal. All are welcome.
Our Shabbat Shacharit services take the standard Jewish worship format of morning blessings, pesukei de zimra, kriat Shema, Amida, Torah service, and closing section. |
