Shalom Center is an (Orthodox) Jewish Learning Center
based in
Susya - Har Hevron which runs a Jewish study program in Israel about the Judaism
and organizes in The Netherlands and Belgium
(study) meetings regarding the Jewish faith and provides information and lessons
besides the Jewish faith about Christianity
related to Judaism, Israel, Zionism, Giyur and Aliyah.
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.

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.
Ø
Shalom Center
organizes (study) meetings, provides
information and lessons about Judaism, Christianity
related to Judaism, Israel, Zionism, Giyur and Aliyah in Israel, Belgium, the Netherlands. In Susya we have (with the approval of the local Rabbi (Rav. E.
Altshuler) a Jewish Learning Center for non-Jewish persons who want to study about Judaism
or about Israel.
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 provides information
about the giyur process to become Jewish but also about volunteer work in Israel
or other possibilities to show support to and solidarity with Israel.
