Our Extended Mishpocha - B'rit Hadasha Messianic Jewish Synagogue, Memphis, TN

OUR EXTENDED MISHPOCHA

OUR EXTENDED MISHPOCHA is the name given to those ministries, missionaries, and organizations that B'rit Hadasha supports prayerfully and financially on a regular basis. As a congregation we seek to touch not only our local community but also others around the world. This reflects two of our core values of "shlichut" (missions) and "kiruv" (outreach). By adopting into the works of others for God's Kingdom, they become like extended mishpocha (family). Please keep these individuals and organizations in your prayers. For more information about Our Extended Mishpocha, please visit their websites (if listed) or contact the office.
