We celebrate these because the Gospel’s and the Apostle Paul wrote of them. Our belief is that if the Messiah
and all the Apostles observed them, and that they continued to keep them after Yeshua’s ascension, then we
must follow in that same, authentic style of worship.
Our Synagogue is a place of worship and fellowship. The music and liturgy is a comfortable blend of Hebrew,
transliterated Hebrew and English so that anyone can participate freely, without fear of NOT knowing what they are
saying. Some ask, “Why do you include the liturgical aspect of worship?” We want everyone to reinforce these
core concepts into their way of life as much as they can—repetition and song is an easy way to learn them.
Our services are every Saturday at 10:30 a.m. and we meet at 6001 Warner St., in Tacoma WA. Our celebration of
Shabbat is geared to last until late in the day, but come when you can, and stay for what you need or want. If you
are wondering what you should wear in synagogue, we prefer for people to dress up in their personal best before
the LORD -- in whatever that may be. Kippahs, prayer shawls and head covering are not required; they are
entirely optional, as you will see some wear them and many do not. Below you'll find an estimation of the service
schedule for our congregation.

About Us - Congregation T'shuvat Yisrael (Repent O Israel), Tacoma WA
We are a Messianic community that is diverse in age, background, ethnicity and nationality; dedicated
to "Balancing the Goodness of Torah with Grace and Mercy." This was a recurring theme that Messiah expressed
to His chosen people during His ministry, and so, we have come together to worship in a style that follows His 1st
century mode of worship.
What exactly does that mean? He said in Matthew 5:18 "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass
away, one jot or one tittle will by NO means pass from the law (Torah) till ALL is fulfilled." Is ALL fulfilled? No? So,
in the words of the Master, the law (Torah) which serves to measure the deeds of men is still valid.
The Messiah observed the Sabbath on the 7th day of the week, which started for him when the sun went down,
after the 6th day (Friday evening). So do we. Among other things, we also keep the Feasts of the LORD, fasts and
festivals:
Tacoma's premier Messianic Congregation, serving Tacoma since 1991.
Yeshua (Jesus) is the KING of kings and LORD of lords.
