Tree of Life Congregation

Adat Eytz Chayim is a Messianic Jewish congregation in Comstock Park, Michigan. It gathers each Saturday for a Shabbat service from 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Oneg follows, a potluck meal shared by the community, and newcomers need not bring anything. Torah study runs from 2 to 4 that afternoon in an open format where everyone can take part. The group works through the weekly portion, its connections to the Gospel and its bearing on modern life. On Wednesday evenings at 7, a Torah Club meets as well.

The congregation understands its practice through the first believers. Yeshua and the believers of the first century faithfully followed the Judaism of their day. In the same way, this community practices a Messianic Judaism centered on the Messiah. That practice is enriched by the traditions of the forefathers. Torah study itself is treated as a form of worship. The community describes itself as "Rooted in Torah and centered on Yeshua."

Hebrew is a large part of congregational life. Beyond what is picked up in services, Adat Eytz Chayim offers Hebrew classes for beginners and more advanced students. Midweek Bible studies and Davidic Dance worship are also part of the week.
