What we do?

 

 

Shalom Center is an Orthodox-Jewish organization in Susya - Har Hevron which provides information (and lessons) in Israel, Belgium and The Netherlands about Judaism, Christianity related to Judaism, Israel, Zionism, Giyur, Aliyah and trips to Israel. Shalom Center  is the former Messianic Congregation Shalom Gemeente Dordrecht - The Netherlands of which most of its members stepped out of Christianity. Several of them did giyur and became Orthodox-Jewish (and in the mean time Aliyah to Eretz Israel). Others study to become Orthodox-Jewish or want to remain Bnei-Noach. Encouraged by this many others, who had the inner desire to live according to Torah and Mitswot (and sometimes have Jewish ancestors) now study Judaism.  

 

Beth MeVaseret.org. Since December 2000 (right after the beginning of 2nd intifada, when the terror attacks against Israel and the Jewish people increased enormous) Shalom Gemeente, Dordrecht started with encouragement trips to Israel to comfort the people of Israel (Jes. 40:1-11). Next  also was started to spread honest news reports about the actual situation in Israel. In September 2001 the Living Water Fellowship is, Assen joined with the trips. That is how Beth MeVaseret.org  Afterwards others got involved. The goal of Beth MeVaseret was however much more is than only the housing of encouragers of the Jewish people. It is a platform, in word and deed, of Believers in the Bible, who stand with Israel. Total some 40 Christian congregations and or ministries joined the work in one or other way. After Shalom Gemeente stepped out of Christianity (after  joined bible-studies during the encouragement trips with Orthodox-Jews  from the settlements) and became Shalom Center a Jewish information center the activities of  Beth MeVaseret.org became part of the activities of Shalom Center.

 

 

 

Shalom Center

We offer:

Ø  Shalom Center provides information (and lessons) about Judaism, Christianity related to Judaism, Israel, Zionism, Giyur and Aliyah in Israel, Belgium and the Netherlands. In Susya we have (with the approval of the local Rabbi (Rav. E. Altshuler) a Beth Midrash for non-Jewish persons who want to study about Judaism. Further we provides lessons about the actual situation and the perspective for peace based at the Tanach.

Ø  Shalom Center provides information regarding Judaism verses Christianity to promote respect and understanding about the differences between the Christian faith and the Jewish faith. Some of our Orthodox-Jewish team members are former Christians who know the Christian world and theology from inside.

Ø     Shalom Center provides information Christianity for Jewish organizations, (government) institutions and schools. Because of a lack of information about Christianity and Christian group, sometimes there is a to much reservation towards Christians who love Israel. At the other hand there also sometimes is a to big cooperation with Christians/groups whose deep wish it its to convert Jews to Christianity (or of variant of it) which results in a neglect of the Torah instructions .

Ø     Shalom Center offers help with dealing giyur requests of people (with Christian background). We provide lesson program(s) to institutions dealing with geerim in order that these possible geerim will be well educated in the aspects Judaism differs from Christianity to prevent future fallbacks caused by lack of knowledge and understanding at the moment of giyur.

Ø     For those who want to observe the Thora instructions and join the people of Israel we provide information who to contact, what to studie and what to do. Isa 56:1-7, Isa 14:1, Isa 27:13.  Isa 56 "Thus saith HaShem: Keep ye justice, and do righteousness; for My salvation is near to come, and My favour to be revealed. 2  Happy is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that holdeth fast by it: that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil. 3 Neither let the alien, that hath joined himself to HaShem, speak, saying: ‘HaShem will surely separate me from His people’; neither let the eunuch say: ‘Behold, I am a dry tree.’ 4  For thus saith HaShem concerning the eunuchs that keep My sabbaths, and choose the things that please Me, and hold fast by My covenant: 5  Even unto them will I give in My house and within My walls a monument and a memorial better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting memorial, that shall not be cut off. 6  Also the aliens, that join themselves to HaShem, to minister unto Him, and to love the name of HaShem, to be His servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and holdeth fast by My covenant: 7  Even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer; their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices shall be acceptable upon Mine altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.".

Ø  Shalom Center encourages every Israelite to examine the roots of their faith so that they know more about who they are and what destiny they have.

 

 

 

Mal. 1:11 "For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same My name is great among the nations; and in every place offerings are presented unto My name, even pure oblations; for My name is great among the nations, saith HaShem of hosts".

 

All Eretz Israël is a G'd given present to the people of Israël. The people will live there as promised. Dvar. 30:2-14 "and shalt return unto HaShem thy G’d, and hearken to His voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul; 3  that then HaShem thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the peoples, whither HaShem thy God hath scattered thee. 4  If any of thine that are dispersed be in the uttermost parts of heaven, from thence will HaShem thy God gather thee, and from thence will He fetch thee. 5  And HaShem thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and He will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers. 6  And HaShem thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love HaShem thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. 7  And HaShem thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, that persecuted thee. 8  And thou shalt return and hearken to the voice of HaShem, and do all His commandments which I command thee this day. 9  And HaShem thy God will make thee over-abundant in all the work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good; for HaShem will again rejoice over thee for good, as He rejoiced over thy fathers; 10  if thou shalt hearken to the voice of HaShem thy God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn unto HaShem thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul. 11 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not too hard for thee, neither is it far off. 12  It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say: ‘Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?’ 13  Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say: ‘Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?’ 14  But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it." .
