What to Expect

Please pardon our chutzpah, but if there’s one thing we can guarantee at Beth Ariel it is that you will receive a warm welcome when you enter our sanctuary doors. Our wonderful team of greeters is standing by ready and willing to assist you. Once seated, we are confident you will sense that you are with a warm, committed and caring community of believers — a community of Jews and Gentiles “from every kindred and tongue” united because of their shared faith in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and in His Messiah, Yeshua.  God’s Ruach (His Spirit) will become palpable as popular Messianic recording artists, Deborah Kline-Iantorno and her husband, Vince, lead us into an awesome experience of praise and worship of Adonai.  We continue to magnify the Lord through our Scripture reading and liturgy and then our Congregational Leader, Gary Derechinsky, never fails to preach relevant and compelling sermons — all from a Messianic Jewish perspective.

Beth Ariel is a congregation where you can connect with Messiah and people of like mind, where Messianic Jewish identity is nurtured, where Gentiles are enlightened as to the Jewish roots of their faith, where inter-marrieds find common ground on their often complex spiritual journeys, where children are grounded in the Scriptures from a Messianic Jewish perspective, where support for Israel is up front and center, and Beth Ariel is a place where you can grow and find wonderful opportunities to serve while making friendships that will last a lifetime.

We encourage you to visit us and “taste and see whether these things be so!”
