We understand that visiting a new congregation can bring many questions. This section is designed to help you learn more about Olive Branch Fellowship and what you can expect when you visit. If you do not see your question listed here, please feel free to reach out—we would be happy to help. email us here.

 

 

Do I need to bring a Bible?
We encourage you to bring a Bible and a notebook so you can follow along and take notes during the teaching. If you do not have one with you, you are still welcome to join us. We have extra bibles if you need one please feel free to ask or grab one they are located in the foyer on the shelf by the door. 

​

Is childcare provided during the service?

Yes. We offer the Little Explorers Nursery for newborns through age 2 beginning at 9:50 AM.

We also have an active Children’s Ministry and Youth Ministry for ages 3–14 during the service.

If you prefer to keep your children with you, families are always welcome in the sanctuary. A quiet room is also available for nursing mothers or parents with little ones who may need a break.​

​

Are the worship services available online?

Live stream service begins at approximately 10:30 AM each Shabbat (Saturday).  Click here to go to our Youtube Channel you can watch live each Saturday at 10:30am

​

Are there opportunities to fellowship after the service?

Yes. Each week we share a fellowship meal called Oneg, which means “delight.”

Members usually bring a dish to share, but visitors are not expected to bring anything. Please allow us to provide the meal for you as our guest.

This is a wonderful time to get to know the congregation and speak with the pastor and leadership.

​

Is Olive Branch Fellowship connected to an overseeing denomination?

No, we are a non-denominational, Bible-believing community desiring to live with conviction and passion for the Word of God, and loving God and all people. 

​

​What should I wear?There is no formal dress code at Olive Branch Fellowship. You will see a range of attire from casual to more traditional clothing. We simply ask that everyone dress in a way that is respectful and modest as we gather to worship the Lord together.

Does Olive Branch have a formal membership procedure?

Membership at Olive Branch is informal and simple. It’s through faith in Yeshua, observance of His Torah, participation in our community and following the Biblical mandate to be faithful servants that together we become the body of Messiah and further His desires. 

​

Do you observe the biblical dietary laws?

We believe the Bible is clear as to what God defines in Leviticus as food for humans.  We encourage you to read through Biblically Clean Foods.

​

What is the Shema that you recite at the beginning of service?

The Shema comes from Deuteronomy 6:4, which says, “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.” It is one of the most important declarations of faith in the Scriptures and has been recited by the Jewish people for centuries.

The Shema continues in Deuteronomy 6:5–9, where God's people are commanded to love the Lord with all their heart, soul, and strength and to keep His words in their hearts, teaching them diligently to their children.

By reciting the Shema at the beginning of our service, we are proclaiming our devotion to God and reminding ourselves of the call to love Him and walk in His ways.

What does it mean that Olive Branch Fellowship follows the Torah?
We believe the whole Bible—from Genesis to Revelation—is the inspired Word of God. Our teachings often explore the Hebrew context of Scripture and the biblical foundations of the faith while following the example and teachings of Yeshua the Messiah.

​

Do I need to understand everything to attend?

Not at all. Many people who visit are still learning about the Hebrew roots of the faith or are new to studying the Bible in this way. Everything is explained during the service, and you are welcome to learn and grow alongside the congregation.

​

Will I be singled out as a visitor?

No. We want guests to feel comfortable and welcome. You will not be asked to stand up or introduce yourself unless you choose to. You are free to simply attend the service and get to know the congregation at your own pace.

​

Can I speak with the pastor after the service?

Yes. Our pastor is always happy to meet visitors, answer questions, and pray with anyone who would like to talk. After the service and during the Oneg fellowship time is usually the best opportunity to connect.
