3. Why do we parade the Torah Scroll? 

- The parading of the Torah Scroll is done in order to emphasize the fact that the Torah is for all who have come to follow Yeshua. Unlike some who teach that the Torah is either abolished or for scholars only. The Scriptures allude clearly that the Torah is foundational for all who have been drawn to Him through the gift of saving faith, for the Torah (which means "Divine Teaching" or "God's Instructions") is the direct revelation of God revealing Who He is, What He has established, and how those who come to Him in faith may live in a way to honor Him and to be blessed by Him through faith in Yeshua, through the inward work of the Ruach HaKodesh (Spirit of the LORD).

- Thus, the parading of the Torah Scroll is our tangible expression that all who are His deeply desire to know Him in truth and to walk in the footsteps of our Messiah Yeshua through the power and strength of the Spirit, thus pleasing Him and shining as lights for Him in this dark world.

- This practice of parading the Torah Scroll is to acknowledge the gift of Torah and us showing the utmost respect to The WORD of God.

​

4. Why do we call our Fellowship, Messianic? 

-Our congregation is a faith community for both Jewish and non Jewish believers in Yeshua Messiah, rooted in the teachings of the Torah, both the Hebrew Scriptures and the Writings of the Apostles.
The messianic faith is an expression for Jewish and non-Jewish Bible believers from all walks of life. The center of the faith is in Yeshua, who is promised and alluded in many parts of the Torah as Israel’s Messiah and the world.
Jewish individuals remain Jewish in their identity, same is true to the non - Jewish believer that they don’t become Jewish when they express their belief in Yeshua as Messiah.
Embracing the Messianic Faith is being one with the Mission of God and being true to the Gospel.
