Our Purpose

The mission goal of the UMJM is to promote unity among Messianic Jewish communities, as well as solidarity among the Jewish society as a whole, as we see antisemitism ever on the rise. Affiliation with the UMJM is based upon acceptance of the UMJM core teachings, abidance in New Covenant halakhah (the proper way to walk with God), and observance of Jewish traditions/customs that comply with the written Torah of YHVH.

The UMJM is a Torah-based Jewish ministry that fully accepts sincere born-again believers who have made our Rabbi Yeshua, their Rabbi — and His Jewish faith, their Jewish faith. Our purpose is to bind up the brokenhearted with love and forgiveness and not cast judgment or show condemnation for past sins.

The UMJM is the only Jewish ministry that welcomes formerly and currently incarcerated Jewish believers into leadership roles and allows qualified men and women to receive “S’mikhah” (Ordination) as Jewish ministers. We provide leadership opportunities for those the world has rejected due to their past lifestyles and sins. We believe our members should not be focused on their past criminal records but rather on Heaven’s eternal record, where their names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

Quality Jewish education is provided through Kh’rev Torah Yeshiva Graduate Seminary for those men and women who have proven themselves steadfast in their calling to serve. Because the TaNaKH (Bible) instructs us to, “. . . know (recognize) those who labor among you . . .”. (I Thess. 5:12), our seminary students are carefully nurtured into qualified and respected Jewish leaders. Their training enables them to properly teach the Besorah (Good News) of the Kingdom of Elohim not just to our affiliated outside assemblies but also to those in our prison systems as well.

The powerful message of Messiah’s teaching (Torah) was meant not just to deliver us from the bondage of our past sins but also the shackles of false, artificial, manufactured, and man-made religions intended by the Enemy to draw us away from the one true faith of our Jewish Messiah. We sincerely hope you will join us in our efforts to proclaim Adonai Yeshua’s message of truth, hope, forgiveness, and light to an ever-darkening world.
