Shema Israel Communities, is a network of Communities (synagogues) of messianic conviction, established in several in some States of the USA, and in some cities of some countries such as USA, Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia , Brazil, and in Spain, in the city of Malaga; The Shema Israel Synagogues are established with a vision to house the Bney Anusim and those who identify with Israel and the Jewish People. Each community is deeply identified with the Jewish Messiah Yeshua haMashiach and the Apostolic Writings; A network of congregations observing the Torah, the Feasts of the Eternal and of course the Shabath and the Kasherut.

It is a group of synagogues of messianic conviction, established initially in Miami in Miami DADE County and in Deerfield Beach, Broward County, but also in some other countries such as Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba and the Dominican Republic. The vision of Shema Israel Communities, Shema Israel Communities (in Spanish), is to bring together and congregate, either physically or online (online), families who are returning in teshuvah to their roots; people whose origin of their faith is admittedly Jewish; people also whose origin is Jewish anusim. To Shema Israel Communities, to each Shema Israel Synagogue, the idea and intention is to return to ‘the ancient paths’; the paths established by the first apostles or emissaries; follow the pattern of Judaism observed and lived by Yeshua and his disciples, talmidim. We have not established ourselves based on the criticism of the ‘Church’, but having understood that the cradle of what we have believed has been that of Judaism, that of Israel, the one lived by the disciples of Yeshua our Rebbe; our Rabbi par excellence.



We, as Shema Israel Communities, are concerned with Torah observance; On Shabath, the Holy Festive Convocations established by the Eternal, ha'Kadósh Baruch Hu. That these are not simply ‘Festivities of the Jewish People’ but the Festivities of the Eternal. Holy Holidays or Convocations, Mikrae Kódesh, didactic and revealing of a Plan of Redemption prepared since the foundation of the centuries by a God (Elo-him) who has proposed to redeem the People of Israel from him.



We consider that neither Yeshua nor Rav Shaúl (Paul), well interpreted, never intended to create any religious version that would separate neither the believers of Jewish origin nor the believers of Gentile origin, from the Torah, the Shabath or the Feasts of the Eternal. We definitely believe that the traditions of our people are linked to our nature as much as the traditions of any nation to its fellow citizens. Any tradition that does not contradict the Torah of the Eternal can be perfectly lived and we must identify ourselves with those of Israel before and in a special way definitely more than with the traditions of those nations in which we have come to be born as a matter of diaspora. We definitely do not belong to any other nationality other than that of our home nation, namely Israel. When we read that "we are a holy nation" that refers to Israel; When we read ‘blessed is the People whose God is A-donai’, it refers to Israel. The nations where we are born are definitely not nations whose God is the Lord. We are convinced, although we respect the different positions held and for having, that it was the believers in the Jewish Messiah, the one who went to the synagogue every Shabath, the one who attended the Beth ha'Mikdash in Yerushalayim, which celebrated the Biblical Holidays and Civic of his people, he never wished to separate those he redeemed, from the people to whom the Eternal made promises and pledged his Word; It is clear to us that Rav Shaul when he said that the Gentiles grafted onto the good olive tree, Israel, should not brag against the original branches; he was meaning that all non-Jewish believers are grafted in Israel and this is how they benefit from what they call 'salvation'. We believe that ‘all Israel will be saved’ as Rav Shaul said in the same chapter 11 of his Iguet el Romim (Rm.). When the Messiah appears and all eyes see him, all of Israel by this time "will see" him and will regret not having believed in him before. "Thus all Israel will be saved." For us there is no such thing as a saved group and an Israel left behind. Moreover, when the nations are benefited, it will be because Israel has already been.
