About Us

Membership

Commitment is required for a congregation to become a strong spiritual family. For those seeking to make P'nei Adonai their "spiritual home", we offer formal membership.

A prerequisite of membership is completing a curriculum of study about Messianic Judaism, so that a member is able to knowledgeably represent the congregation.
