Congregation Gesher Shalom is a Messianic
Jewish Congregation and an affiliate of the IAMCS (International
Alliance of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues). The
IAMCS is the synagogue branch of the MJAA (Messianic Jewish
Alliance of America).
The mission of the Congregation is to further the revival
of the Messianic Jewish Community begun by Yeshua and His
disciples in the first century, making disciples as they
did in the context of their Jewish identity. This is accomplished
through: prayer; teaching Jewish people about their Messiah;
worshipping G-d through Yeshua, by the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy
Spirit); retaining our Jewish identity; supporting Israel;
and being an outreach to the community.
We are comprised of Jewish and non-Jewish believers, with
a heart of Ruth, who worship the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob by music, dance and liturgy, as did Yeshua and the
first century Jewish people.
We are to be a beacon of light in Central Florida as a synagogue
or (place of gathering) where we can worship and fellowship
with each other as we celebrate the Shabbat and the Feasts
of the L-rd. We study the Torah and the entire scriptures
from Genesis to Revelation. We provide Messianic Jewish
and Hebrew education for adults and children and fully equip
them to fulfill the calling of G-d on their lives.
We are to foster love and support, through prayer and finances,
for the State of Israel and recognize through scriptures
that G-d is calling His people back to the Land.
We are a mishpocha, a family of G-d, breaking bread, praising
and worshipping G-d, unified, loving, sharing and helping
one another.
Congregation Gesher Shalom meets on Erev Shabbat (Friday
Evenings)at 8:00pm, and Saturday mornings at 11:00am. Monday
nights we have men's intercessory Prayer. Tuesday nights
we have women's Intercessory Prayer in the sanctuary and
our College and Career group meet for Scripture Study in
our MJCC (Messianic Jewish Community Center). Hebrew classes,
Dance Workshops, Shabbat School, Teen Group, College and
Career , Singles Over 40, Couples Club, and Brotherhood
and Sisterhood are all available on a regular basis. Nursery,
child care and classes for the youth are, also, available
at every service.
