Messianic Jewish congregation · Macon, GA
Shalom Macon calls itself a Messianic Jewish synagogue in Macon, Georgia, where Jewish and Gentile believers in Yeshua worship together. Rabbi Damian Eisner leads the community. Torah scrolls rest in an ark in the sanctuary, and some members wear a kippah. The biblical festivals of Leviticus 23 are kept through the year.
Shabbat morning holds two services. At 9:00 a traditional liturgy and Torah service is conducted mostly in Hebrew. At 11:00 come worship music, children's education and the rabbi's weekly teaching, mostly in English. That second service is recommended for first-time guests. Picnic lunches follow. Shalom Kids offers classes for children from six weeks through fifth grade. Services also stream live, and an online community called Shalom@Home gathers people beyond Macon.
The congregation understands Messianic Judaism as recognizing "the beauty and ongoing validity of Jewish tradition and practice" as defined by Jesus and the Apostolic Scriptures. It holds that believers from the nations are joined to Israel through the Messiah. Jews and Gentiles stand together in what it calls "ongoing distinction and mutual blessing." Its mission is to bring Messianic Jewish teaching to Jews and Christians, stressing the ongoing importance of Israel and the Jewish people. Shalom Macon states that it is not a church.
