Adat HaTikvah

Adat HaTikvah, whose name means "Congregation of The Hope," is a Messianic Jewish congregation in Louisville. Its members are Jewish and Gentile people who believe Yeshua is the promised Messiah. Shabbat services begin each Saturday at 11:00, after a time of prayer at 9:00. On the first Saturday of every month, the service is a full Torah Service.

Worship draws on Messianic and Israeli songs. Teaching is based on the complete Bible, both the Tenach and the B'rit Hadashah. The community celebrates all the feasts and holy days ordained by Adonai in the Torah and kept by Messiah Yeshua. Bibles, siddurs and machzors are on hand for those who need them.

The congregation holds the Bible to be the inerrant and final authority in faith and practice. It reads the Shema as declaring G-d a composite unity: Father, Son and Ruach HaKodesh. Adat HaTikvah affirms the deity of Yeshua, his atoning death, his bodily resurrection and his return in glory. For its Jewish members, the calling is distinct. As Jewish followers of Yeshua, they believe they are called to "remain a part of our people, Israel." The congregation also takes part in several ministries at the national and international level. After the Shabbat service, congregants may have personal prayer time with the leadership.
