'Teshuvah' is a Hebrew word that is understood to mean 'repentance'. It literally means to turn back to G-d, and so the purpose of Teshuvah Messianic Synagogue is encapsulated in a single word. Teshuvah Messianic Synagogue exists primarily to call G-d's people Israel to turn back to Him in repentance - through the atoning work of Yeshua the Messiah.
As Hashem declared through the prophet Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah 4:1-2):
"'Israel, if you will return,' says Adonai, 'yes, return to me; and if you will banish your abominations from my presence without wandering astray again; and if you will swear, 'As Adonai lives,' in truth, justice and righteousness; then the nations will bless themselves by him, and in him will they glory.'"
As this Scripture indicates, the call to worship G-d is not only for those of Jewish descent.
Teshuvah Messianic Synagogue welcomes on an equal basis those that were not born Jewish. Those from the nations are to "bless themselves by him and in him will they glory".
The call to do teshuvah is for everyone, young and old, male and female, Jews by birth and Jews by choice. The call is no less for those that have already been brought into relationship with G-d through Messiah Yeshua. Hashem calls all those who have a relationship with Him to live a life based on teshuvah.
