 Special Announcements  Thursday 21 August: Our dear friend and colleague, Dr. Grady Davis, went to his Reward on 26 May. Please visit his memorial page.

Monday 21 July: This weekend we migrated our site to a new server, more than tripling our storage and bandwidth allocation. This resulted in a number of pages losing their formats. We will get them reformatted as quickly as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to a significant lack of interest in the Messianic Message in our geographical area, Adat B'nei HaMelech has been forced (at least for the foreseeable future) to cease functioning as an active congregation. These adverse circumstances have forced me to take a full-time secular position which will require me to work evenings and weekends for the foreseeable future, precluding group Bible studies due to schedule conflicts. I will, however, continue to operate this website as an on-line ministry for as long as the LORD leads me to do so. As the LORD leads you, your continuing prayers and financial support to offset the on-going web-hosting and other operating costs will be sincerely appreciated. — Ari
