This Elul, we invite you to Draw Near.

Elul is a season of spiritual preparation—a time to quiet the noise, turn our attention toward Adonai, and prepare our hearts for the High Holy Days. Throughout this three-part series, we will explore what it means to SEEK G-d with all our heart, LISTEN for His voice, and EXPECT Him to move in our lives.

Each Shabbat, we’ll journey through Elul together, making room for a deeper encounter with Adonai.

We would love to have you join us! Come early for Kesher Kafe at 10:00 AM, a time to enjoy coffee, refreshments, and fellowship before our Shabbat service which begins at 11:00 AM.

This Independence Day marks America’s 250th anniversary, and we invite you to begin the celebration by seeking Adonai together.

On Saturday, July 4, from 9:00–10:00 AM, Beth Emanuel Messianic Synagogue will participate in America Prays 250, a nationwide movement uniting believers across the country for one hour of focused prayer.

During this special hour, we will pray for:

  • Recovery – a renewed awe and reverence for the Name of the L-rd
  • Restoration – for our families, communities, and our nation
  • Repentance – hearts turning back to G-d
  • Release – freedom, healing, and deliverance through His power

Immediately following the prayer gathering, we will continue with our special one-hour Flip Flop Shabbat Service (10:00–11:00 AM) as we worship together and thank Adonai for His faithfulness throughout our nation’s history.

As we commemorate 250 years of freedom, may we remember that our greatest hope is found not in governments or institutions, but in G-d. We invite you, your family, and your friends to join us for this meaningful morning of prayer and worship.
