What makes Son of David Congregation unique?

ITS PEOPLE Look around, and you'll discover an exciting mix of people at SODC, sporting an array of cultural and religious backgrounds, yet worshiping the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in perfect unity.

ITS PRAISE Distinctively Jewish. Why? Certainly not because Jewish is "better." The reason is simply this: Our scriptures, our redemption, and our Messiah stem from roots which are distinctively Jewish, and we cherish that heritage!

ITS PURPOSE
To reach out to our community with the good news of our Messiah, Yeshua
To raise up individuals who love God with their whole heart, mind, soul and strength
To replicate small groups of caring, committed people of God with deepening relationships
To relay a messianic vision to the next generation

SODC is in the news!!
Our very own Nik Zamoroko's mother, Yevgenia Zamoroko-Lysenko, was awarded the medal of RIGHTEOUS AMONG THE NATIONS. The award ceremony, the first at the United States Holocaust Museum, took place in Washington, D.C. on September 6, 2007.

At this time of year as we observe Yom HaShoah, I have just been told that I am not Jewish or entitled to celebrate the Jewish festivals because of my belief in Yeshua as the Jewish Messiah....
