 Shalom
Hebrews West is a small community of dedicated Believers in the Torah of Yehovah.
For us Torah is life.
We live on 16 beautiful acres in central Idaho. We try to grow most of our own food.
We believe that life is better lived with little to no distractions from the toxic world around us.
Hard work brings a good night’s sleep.
Good Kosher whole food brings Health to our bodies.
Spiritual discipline & obedience to Torah brings Inner peace / Shalom.
A joyful attitude is a choice. Obedience to Yehovah word brings Healing.
Our door is open to those who are in need of the benefits of Community, Health, Security, and a change of Attitude.
Recapping we are not looking for community we are looking for family.
May the blessing of Yehovah be upon you.
PS (We are doers not talkers)
No matter where you are, give us a call 208-926-4740.
Shalom,
Hebrews West
