Worship & Fellowship

Shalom Brethren !

The cornerstone of our community life is Shabbat.

As a Messianic congregation, we enjoy a relaxed, God-and-community focused Shabbat. We come on Saturday's at 11:30 AM without an agenda, ... simply a desire to meet with Ha Shem, the Lord God and His body on His appointed time of gathering and rest.

We like to think of our Sabbath Celebrations and Faith 

as a 'Return to the Fullness' of the

EARLY ACTS CHURCH

A Non-Traditional, 'Traditional' Shabbat

Join us Saturday afternoons, 1 P.M. at 

 at  120 Rogers Road in Kittery, Maine 

Synagogues all over the world read through the Torah annually, divided into readings that traditionally date back to the Prophet Ezra. In our Shabbat Services, we partake in Hebrew/English liturgies, blessings, a Torah Cycle portion message to discuss what it means and how it applies to our lives today. 

If you have the desire or ability to study the portion ahead of time, that's great - but if not, that's fine too. You will get a lot out of this unique worship service either 'way'.

Shabbat Afternoon Prayer & Main                                 Service

Shabbat service begins with the beautiful call of the Shofar and the cornerstone prayer, the Shema, ... and then we sing or read a few liturgical blessings. After that we have our Torah service which includes reading the week's Parashah and drash  (a short sharing/teaching) on the weekly Torah portion from Messianic Pastor William (bill) Bayliss, Rev. Rob 'SPIKE' Henry along with Elder George Wheeler. You will find our Shabbat services to be very                  ' interactive ' and flow in the Spirit of 'Iron Sharpens Iron'.

Our congregation is a type of family-integrated community, and children are welcome to join us in service. There are crayons and coloring pages available to keep their hands busy. 

Oneg

After service, we enjoy a fellowship meal, traditionally called "Oneg", ..    which means delight. This is done potluck-style, and everyone is welcome to attend.                                                                                                           ( feel free to bring a dish to share ) 

Oneg is one of the best times to get to know our fellowship, so if you're visiting to check us out to 'see' if we're a good fit for you, make sure to plan on staying! We want to get to know you!

Here at United In Messiah, we enjoy the unrushed spirit of Shabbat. We come together on Saturday with no agenda except to rest in the presence of the Lord, learn more about Him, and enjoy fellowship with each other.
