The MJRC

Like all Jews in all times, we Messianic Jews have a responsibility to the covenants God has made with our ancestors.  These covenants are expressed in and through the mitzvoth.  It is therefore incumbent upon us as faithful followers of our Messiah to develop and refine our way of life by developing standards of observance, helping our fellow Messianic Jews to live out lives of Torah faithfulness informed by our tradition and the Spirit of our Messiah.  This is the primary work of the MJRC.  I am grateful to have dedicated people to work with in this important work.
