A place for people who do not want to carry everything alone

​

There are seasons in life when we simply need someone who is willing to listen. Perhaps you are going through a difficult time, feeling alone, worried about your family or future, searching for spiritual direction, or simply wishing that someone would pray together with you.

At Beit Or Ha'Chaim in Vienna, we want to offer a safe and respectful space for personal conversations, prayer, pastoral care and spiritual guidance.

You do not need to be a member of our community. You do not need to have your faith figured out, and you do not need to know exactly what answers you are looking for.

Sometimes everything begins with a conversation.

You matter to us. Your story matters to us.

​

SOMEONE TO TALK TO IN VIENNA

​

Sometimes there is not one particular question that is troubling us. Instead, it may simply feel as though too many thoughts and concerns are being carried alone.

Perhaps you are looking for someone to talk to in Vienna because you are experiencing a personal crisis, feeling lonely, facing an important decision, or simply need someone who will listen with patience and attention.

Our conversations are not intended to be a place for quick judgments or simplistic answers. We first want to understand what you are going through and meet you with respect, compassion and discretion.

At Beit Or Ha'Chaim, this personal support is connected with our faith in the God of Israel, the Holy Scriptures and Yeshua (Jesus) as the Messiah.

​

PRAYER & INTERCESSION IN VIENNA

​

Many people search for prayer in Vienna, a prayer community, a prayer group or someone who will pray for them during difficult seasons.

Perhaps your concern involves illness, family, relationships, work, an important decision or something you have been carrying in your heart for a long time.

For us, prayer means bringing our lives before the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and entrusting Him even with those things we cannot solve ourselves.

The Torah, the Psalms and the Prophets show people turning to God in times of joy as well as fear, uncertainty and distress. Yeshua the Messiah also taught his disciples to approach the Father in prayer with trust.

If you wish, we will take your concern seriously and pray together with you.

​

PASTORAL CARE IN VIENNA FROM A BIBLICAL & MESSIANIC PERSPECTIVE

​

Our pastoral care in Vienna is shaped by Scripture and our Messianic Jewish faith.

This does not mean simply giving someone a few Bible verses and treating their difficulties as solved. Scripture itself speaks openly about grief, doubt, fear, loneliness and periods of deep uncertainty.

In Yeshua, we see an attitude that is especially important to us: he did not first see people as “problems” to be fixed. He saw human beings with dignity, history, questions and needs.

This is the attitude we want to bring into our personal conversations as well.

We listen. If you would like, we pray together. And we explore with you the biblical hope and spiritual direction that Scripture can offer.

​

QUESTIONS OF FAITH & SPIRITUAL DIRECTION

​

Perhaps you are not primarily looking for pastoral care. Perhaps you are looking for answers.

Who is God?
What is the purpose of my life?
What can I really believe?
Who is Yeshua?
Why does the Torah matter?
How can I find a faith that genuinely carries me through life?

There is space for these questions too.

At Beit Or Ha'Chaim, you can explore the Bible, Torah, Israel, the Jewish roots of faith and Yeshua the Messiah, while openly asking your own questions.

People who are searching for a church in Vienna, a free church in Vienna, a Bible study group, a Christian community or a new spiritual home sometimes discover through us a Messianic Jewish perspective on Scripture for the first time.

Beit Or Ha'Chaim is not a conventional evangelical free church. We are a Messianic Jewish community in Vienna rooted in the God of Israel, Scripture, Shabbat, Torah and faith in Yeshua.

​

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO CARRY EVERYTHING ALONE

​

Perhaps you arrived here because you no longer know whom to speak to.

Perhaps you are looking for prayer.

Perhaps you simply need to talk.

Perhaps you are searching for God.

Whatever brought you here, at Beit Or Ha'Chaim in Vienna we want to meet you with respect, time and compassion.

Our faith in the God of Israel and in Yeshua the Messiah reminds us that behind every message, every prayer request and every question is a real person.

And that person matters.

Our pastoral care, prayer and spiritual guidance are religious and interpersonal forms of support. They do not replace medical, psychological or psychotherapeutic treatment. In an acute crisis or immediate danger, appropriate professional or emergency services should be contacted.
