If you aren’t familiar with Messianic Judaism, then welcome, and if you are, welcome as well! We are a biblically based community of Jewish and non-Jewish believers committed to faith in the Jewish messiah-Yeshua (Jesus), of whom the torah of Moses and the prophets spoke. We follow a messianic lifestyle as taught by the apostles, celebrate the feasts of Israel, and observe other Jewish traditions. We teach that Jewish people who believe in Yeshua remain Jewish, while non-Jewish believers may practice Jewish customs and holidays without the requirement to become Jewish.


SEE THE UPPER ROOM MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS:

Membership

Membership in Tikvat’s Youth organization “The Upper Room” automatically enrolls students as members of our national organization, the YMJA (Young Messianic Jewish Alliance of America), and connects our students to the national movement of Messianic Jewish youth across the country. Annual dues are only $20 which covers membership for both organizations. Members receive discounts on retreats and conferences. The membership application for students can be downloaded below or contact our office.

Meet Tikvat's interim youth Leader, Mr. brett tipton

Some history on myself: As a kid, I was raised in a Baptist church. While I didn’t think about it at the time, the pastor of the church was Jewish. He didn’t practice a Messianic version of the faith. Maybe he wasn’t even aware of the movement. But, we were a congregation that studied the entirety of Scripture. So, since a young age I’ve had a connection to God’s chosen people. I’ve completed degree work in Bible Comprehensive from Cedarville University, Communication and Rhetoric from The University of Akron, and Digital Video and Media Technology from Stark State College. My favorite holiday is Purim. In the past, God has opened up avenues for me to be involved in Purim celebrations as director, writer, actor, singer, and composer. I thoroughly enjoy those types of creative pursuits. I look forward to getting to know everyone better. Shalom shalom!
