Torah-based Messianic group seeking to become an intentional community. This seems to be a more torah-friendly way of life and the way the first followers of Messiah lived. Searching for rural land, large urban property (hotel, apartment building, etc.), or neighborhood with inexpensive/available homes for those interested. Right now, we don't know the exact location or nature of the location but eager to begin the process of implementing this lifestyle into our faith.
Status: Seeking to implement a Torah-based intentional community.
Community location is placed at the center of the zip/postal code, city/state, or city/country (not based on street addresses)
