Adat Eytz Chayim (Tree of Life Congregation) was founded in the early part of 1999 as a Messianic Jewish Congregation.Our first service was held on 27 Shevat 5759/Feb. 13, 1999. Because we are a Messianic Jewish Congregation, we have five primary objectives. These are in essence a Statement of our Purpose.

1. To propogate the Besuras HaGeulah (Good News/Gospel) of the Kingdom of G-D in the Name of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah), to the Jew especially, but equally to the non-Jew as outlined in Romans 1:16.

2. To foster the spiritual growth and discipleship of the constituency while providing opportunities for fellowship among like~minded believers. 

3. To teach the Scriptural and historical foundations of faith in Yeshua, and to worship Him in a cultural context as the long awaited, promised Messiah of Yisra'el.

4. To bring tikkun (restoration) to the Jewishness of the Besuras HaGeulah (Good News/Gospel), and teach the same to all who make inquiry.

5. To build bridges of reconciliation and education between the Church and the Jewish People, through the provision of instruction concerning the Hebrew root of the Christian faith.

 In an effort to promote these objectives, we pattern our worship services and our educational programs accordingly.

Because we are a Messianic Jewish Congregation, we do not adhere to or promote doctrines and theologies that deviate from Messianic Judaism ( i.e. British Israelism, Two House, Two Covenant, Sacred Name, and all Replacement Type Theologies). Adherance to these types of doctrines/theologies, whether in whole or in part, runs counter to our set goals and objectives, and as a result, we expect our visitors as well as our constituency to honor and respect our worship patterns and objectives as stated.
