Jewish? Intermarried? Gentile who loves Israel? ... Welcome Home!
Beth Yeshua is a home for:
Jewish and Intermarried people who want to celebrate Yeshua as Messiah while continuing to celebrate their Jewish identity.
Intermarried families who wrestle with the questions of how to raise their children - and who wonder how to celebrate the Jewish identity of one spouse - while also celebrating the other cultures represented in their marriage.
Ruth Hearted Gentiles who love the Land of Israel, the Jewish people, and want to see all Jewish people understand that Yeshua is the Jewish Messiah.
Our Shabbat School Programs are Amazing!
We have incredible teachers with over 60 years of combined experience teaching in public schools!
All of our teachers have passed a background check and are well known within our community.
We offer Shabbat School for children ages 5-11 and rotating toddler care led by parent volunteers.
We also offer a Youth program for those 11 and up who want to spiritually grow and are either preparing for Bar/Bat Mitzvah or Confirmation - or have already had their coming of age ceremony.
