Beth Yeshua Congregation

Beth Yeshua Messianic Congregation gathers in Las Vegas every Friday night at 7:30 for its weekly Shabbat celebration. Jewish and Gentile believers in Yeshua worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob together. Services include prayer, songs, davidic dancing, Scripture teaching and an oneg of food and fellowship. Shabbat school runs during the service for children ages 4 to 12, and a nursery is available.

The congregation holds that Yeshua is the promised Messiah of Israel and affirms his deity, atoning death and bodily resurrection. Its faith, focus and lifestyle are Jewish. Even so, it says it "will never put Jewishness (or anything else) above Yeshua." Jewish and Gentile believers are understood as one body in Messiah. For Jewish believers, the congregation is a place to express a God-given Jewish identity. Gentile believers find room to discover the Jewish roots of the faith and to identify with the Jewish community. Salvation is taught as by grace through faith, and Torah is not held necessary for salvation or sanctification. Israel's future restoration as a nation is read from a literal understanding of prophecy.

Dr. Rich Hill and his wife Oanh lead the congregation. He leads all services and teaching, and she leads worship through davidic dance. Both serve as ministry representatives for CJF Ministries. Together they present The Watchmen, a Bible teaching program on Israel, prophecy and the feasts. Dr. Rich also leads campus outreach at UNLV. The congregation holds its own gatherings for Rosh Hashanah and Sukkot.
