    Thank you so much for your outline of readings! My family and I are new in coming back to Torah, as we have been Christian for the last couple of years. Your website and YouTube videos have brought so much blessing, meaning, and understanding to our reading of His Word that we have not received elsewhere. We cannot thank you enough for what you do and I promise you it is felt all over the world! We are in New Bern, NC and do not have a Messianic Community close to us, so I rely on your teachings to teach my family as I learn and as week keep and remember Shabbat weekly. We pray that the Father’s Shalom continues to bless you all and we plan to donate and spread the word about you guys soon. Thank you!!!

    • Thank you kindly dear Brother… May the Almighty bless you and yours and cover you under His shadow of protection and blood covering! Hag Sameach!

  2. We’ve just started following the lunar/solar calendar Yah’s way, coming out from following other Calendars. So happy to return to the ancient path! Hallelu Yah!

  3. Hi, Rabbi Isaac,
    Me and my husband would love to know what it takes to become a part of your congregation.
    Assembly of called out believers , we follow you on you tube, and have been following for the last 2 years. We have been keeping the Sabbath and all the feast days. The feast day’s are new to us, and would absolutely love to see how you keep and celebrate them. I learned of the feast day’s and stopped celebrating the pagan holiday’s 20 years ago. Now I would truly love to know how to celebrate them right.
    Thank you so much. May Adonai bless all of us.
