Description of a Typical Messianic Jewish Shabbat Service

Our worship is carefully built on the Jewish historical, biblical models. The various sections are helps in worshipping G-d and are vehicles for experiencing his reality. Jewish worship is, therefore, a sacred drama in which we must be participants, not observers!

The following is an order of service from a recent Shabbat service. The passages are from the Siddur for Messianic Jews, which can be ordered from the reading list by contacting the synagogue.
