To offer a special worship experience that combines the joyfulness and reverence, and the sense of community of the Hebrew tradition, with our distinctive Adventist identity.
 

To help Christians in general, and Seventh-day Adventists in particular, recover their Hebrew roots and enrich their emotional, intellectual, and physical adoration.
 

To create a spiritual and liturgical environment where Jews as well as Christians can worship the same God of Israel—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who also was the God of Peter, John, and Paul—thereby relieving and transcending the Jewish-Christian tension.
 

In these times of religious and identity crises, it is important to rethink and reshape our worship services to make them more relevant, more meaningful but also more in touch with our Hebrew roots. For Seventh-day Adventists this reflection and experience is all the more justified as they share so much in common with the Jews: the same Shabbat, the same affirmation of Creation and joy of life, the same reverence for the truth of the Torah, the same ideal of righteousness and justice, and the same hope for a better world.
