Extra Giving Opportunities
Ways to Give to Make a Difference in our Community
NEW 2024-2025 Torah Portion cards ARE HERE
In Messianic Judaism, Torah Portions, or Parashot, are divisions of the Torah, the first five books of the Hebrew Bible. They form the foundation for weekly Torah readings during Shabbat services and holidays, offering diverse narratives, laws, and teachings for spiritual and ethical enrichment.
In Messianic Judaism, understanding the Torah Portions is crucial for fully comprehending the teachings of Yeshua (Jesus), who is the fulfillment of the laws and prophecies contained within these texts. The portions often serve as a backdrop for Messianic teachings, linking God’s covenantal promises and guidelines to the fulfilled Messianic expectations in Yeshua.
We will send you an email with a link to download your .pdf copy of the Torah Portions.

MESSIAH YESHUA
OUR CORE BELIEFS
There is one God
Shema Israel Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai echad.
We believe this one God is a complex unity (echad) eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe that God is all knowing, all powerful, ever present, and changeless and that He is righteous, faithful, merciful and loving.
His Son, Messiah Yeshua
We believe that Messiah Yeshua is the eternal and only begotten Son of God, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of a Jewish virgin, Miriam.
He was sinless in His life and He made atonement for the sins of the world by the shedding of His blood upon death.
We believe in His bodily resurrection from the dead. His ascension, His high priestly work in Heaven for us, and his visible pre-millennial return to the world according to His promise.
The Holy Spirit
We believe the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit) is a person of the Godhead; and as such, He possesses all the distinct attributions of Deity.
He is ever present to glorify and testify of Messiah Yeshua. We believe according to the Brit Chadashah (New Covenant), the Ruach Ha Kodesh permanently indwells, regenerates and seals the believer.
He empowers, sovereignly imparting at least one spiritual gift to every believer for the purpose of edifying and equipping the Body of Messiah.
The Rabbi and Rebbetzin
Founding Pioneers
It has been by God’s grace, faithful mentors, leaders and servants that Hope of Israel has been established. It has been glorious to see the work of the Lord in developing Hope of Israel as a light in the great Roanoke valley and beyond. Our hope and prayer is that as the community grows other healthy messianic congregations will be planted to be discipleship making centers that share the good news of Yeshua to the Jew first and equally to non-Jewish individuals. All glory to Yeshua our Messiah!
