Adat Yeshua Synagogue LA
Harahan, LAAdat Yeshua Synagogue is a Messianic synagogue in New Orleans that celebrates Yeshua as Messiah with Judaism. Erev Shabbat services are held Friday evenings at 7, and a study class meets Saturdays at 1. Those who cannot attend in person can join by phone or computer. Worship is in English and Hebrew, with transliteration so everyone can follow. Prayers come from the Siddur, which serves as a guide. The music draws on traditional and contemporary Jewish and Messianic songs, along with songs from the liturgy. On Saturdays the class studies books of the Bible and Jewish and Messianic writings derived from them. The congregation reads Paul as a Jew rooted in his training as a Pharisee, whose view of the Torah was always positive. It teaches that Torah observance is not a means of salvation. Jewishness is not erased in Messiah, though. Jewish Torah observance is understood as a distinct calling. In the congregation's words, the Mosaic law "applies to Messianic Jews and Gentile Christians in different ways." The community values learning together and asks about the meaning of Scripture and of daily life.MessianicUMJC
Congregation Beth Hallel
Mandeville, LACongregation Beth Hallel is a Messianic Jewish congregation in Mandeville, Louisiana, serving the southeastern part of the state. The community was meeting before Katrina. Its post-Katrina congregation has gathered continuously since Hanukkah 2005. Beth Hallel describes Messianic Judaism as "the Jewish arm of the Body of Messiah." Worship is offered to HaShem, through Yeshua Ha Mashiach, by the Ruach Hakodesh, in a Jewish context. The congregation calls itself Torah based, with "a first century flavor," and reads Scripture with Jewish understandings. It holds that the Scriptures from Genesis through Revelation are the inerrant word of God. Yeshua is affirmed as fully God and fully man, born of the Jewish virgin Miriam. They believe His atoning sacrifice was for the sins of Israel and all mankind. The community hopes to be a bridge for Jewish believers, interfaith married couples and seekers worshipping as one body. Drawing on Ephesians 2, it seeks to live in oneness (echad). Jew and Gentile, believer or not, are invited into fellowship. Rabbi David leads the congregation. Its calendar includes Shabbat, Rosh Chodesh, Bible studies and the feasts. Monthly and weekly readings of Parashat ha-Shavua, Haftarah and Brit Hadashah follow the full kriyah.IAMCSMJAA
