About Faith and Community
Shalom and a Warm Welcome to All
The Hebrew phrase "Anaf Tivi" (ענף טבעי) translates to "Natural Branch," which directly references the biblical theology of Romans chapter 11, regarding Jews and the grafting in of Gentles into the One New Man (Ephesians 2:15). Anaf Tivi Ministries is based out of New York City. It is a Jewish outreach ministry run by Gil Burgos, who being a Jew himself, started Anaf Tivi to replace otbers.
Interesting enough, Gil is considered a Baal Teshuva. A "Baal Teshuva," is a Jewish person from a secular or non-Orthodox background, who now embraces a traditionally observant lifestyle. In these final days, God has prompted him retuned back to his Hebraic roots, for the sake of preaching the Gospel to the Jewish people (Matthew 28:18-20, Romans 11:26).
We understand the importance of faith, hope, and community. Our mission is to provide a compassionate and supportive environment - where everyone feels embraced and encouraged in their spiritual journey. We believe that together, we can find strength and comfort through shared prayer, outreach, and education.
