Ministries

Birth to 23 months old

Our nursery is divided into two classes:

• Babies—for infants from birth to age one or until your child is walking.
• Walkers—for children walking up to 23 months old.

Our nursery is staffed with professional, caring adults who provide a safe and secure environment conducive to the child's physical, social and spiritual growth. When you are confident in leaving your baby in the care of our staff, then you are able to worship with a sense of security. We have taken great care to prepare our nursery rooms to be the best environment for your baby with age appropriate toys and an opportunity to interact with others. As we hold the babies, we pray for them to receive all that God has for them in life. We believe every child we pray for will be touched by God.

Destiny considers the nursery to be an important area of ministry, both for the parent and the child.

Ages 2 - Kindergarten

Our preschool is divided into 4 classes: 2 years old, 3 years old, 4 years old and Kindergarten. During services, your child will be in the care of several trained volunteers and Destiny team members, all of whom meet required background standards.

Our goal is to encourage preschoolers in a growing, loving relationship with Jesus Christ and others in an atmosphere where they feel a sense of belonging. We present biblical learning materials with a hands-on approach to help establish in the hearts of the children an active faith toward God and His Word. We have designed age appropriate classes just for them. We teach the simplicity of the Gospel through a variety of stories, crafts, Bible action songs and other activities. Every lesson taught reinforces Bible truths. Children can be ministered to individually during this time.

Destiny Kids offers a place where children from first through fifth grade can discover and develop a passion for God. Through worship, teaching, and a variety of fun activities, children are exposed to God's Word and challenged to grow in their relationship with God.

Our children's services are fully staffed with adults and high school students who are committed to teaching and ministering to children. You can be confident that your child is well-cared for and having a great time learning about God while you worship.

Destiny Kids Ministry is offered during all of our weekend services and during the services on Wednesday night.

The House is a youth & young adult awakening where people from across the Coachella Valley gather to pursue the one true, living God. Although young people primarily attend, the House is not just a youth thing; it is a hunger thing. Countless numbers have been impacted, forsaking a lifestyle of sin to embrace a real relationship with Jesus Christ. Those awakened ones, once dead in sin, are now the revival and the movement intercessors have been praying for. The House intent is to summon the youth of the nations to the reality of Jesus Christ and to equip them to impose His Kingdom.

The House serves an assignment to our next generation for them to fall in love with God, His house, and His mission. The House declares this to be its mission statement: “To awaken a generation out from spiritual apathy, calling them to their individual purpose and corporate responsibility as a movement of revolutionaries imposing the Kingdom of God.” The House begins its fall season September 14, 2010 @7:00pm in the Main Auditorium.

We meet every Friday for the beginning [evening] of the Sabbath [Shabbat in Hebrew], and learn the "Jewish Roots" of the Bible, in a SHABBAT SMALL GROUP in different homes throughout the DESERT, except on the FIRST FRIDAY of the month, where we meet in the Main Sanctuary of Destiny, as we receive an offering to send to Israel for evangelism, food and clothing, and other resources to "Bless the Sons of Abraham" [Genesis 12:1-3]. We have a great time of Food, Faith, Fun & Fellowship, through the Communion of the Believers drinking the "Fruit of the Vine", Breaking of Bread [Challah Bread - Bread for Shabbat] after the traditional lighting of the Shabbat Candles. We start with the Teaching of the Torah [First Five Books of Moses: Genesis - Deuteronomy], perusing through the Prophets [Joshua - Malachi], reading the "Royal Writings" [Psalms, Proverbs..... to 2 Chronicles] and then gloriously reveal how Jesus [Yeshua in Hebrew/Aramaic] the Anointed Messiah fulfilled the Hebrew Scriptures, and teaches us as His disciples to fulfill, do and teach them also, as we "disciple" the nations [Goyim: "Gentiles"]. We introduce to Jewish People, maybe for the first time, the true Jewish Messiah of Israel, along with teaching Gentile Believers about Hebrew thought and the "Jewish Roots" of our faith. 

We begin our small group at 6:30 for "nash" [Yiddish for a "bite"] of food, and enter study at 7pm to prepare our hearts for the rich Hebraic Teaching of the Scriptures by Rabbi Brian Bileci, who also holds the position of Executive Teaching Pastor of Destiny Church, working alongside Lead Pastors Obed & Lissette Martinez, and is a Bible Instructor in our Destiny Leadership College. Rabbi and His beautiful wife, Magali Bileci also oversee all of the Counseling on campus, and Spiritual Growth of the Destiny Church Family. He is a ordained rabbi in the Messainic Jewish Alliance of America [MJAA], and also is the Congregational Leader / Rabbi of Simchat Yeshua Messianic Congregation in San Jacinto, Ca. [with Shabbat Morning and Afternoon Services held every Saturday www.simchatyeshua.com].

About Messianic Judaism:

The rebirth of modern Israel has been paralleled by a revival of interest in spirituality among Jewry worldwide. Amidst this search for meaning and truth, Jewish people have once again examined the Hebrew Scriptures, the foundation and central document in Jewish faith. Many have compared the teachings of the Torah and the Prophets with the claims of the New Testament. A great number of these people have come to embrace the belief that Yeshua [Jesus] is the Messiah of Israel and that the New Testament is, after all, a Jewish book, from Jewish authors, about a Jewish Messiah. That means we have to first view the Scriptures from a "Jewish Perspective", and understand the context and message to its original audience, before we apply principles to our current lives and situations. We must RIGHTLY divide the Word of Truth!

While Messianic Judaism is new in some respects, it is also 2000 years old [Acts 21:17-20]. It stands on a foundation going back to biblical times. In the First Century AD, there were several different sects within Judaism — Pharisees, Saduccees, Herodians, Essenes and Zealots to name a few. These different Jewish groups were unquestionably part of the larger Jewish community. A great number of Judeans comprised one of these groups — the Nazarenes. These were followers of the teachings of Yeshua [Jesus] of Natzeret [Nazareth], followers of “the Way” [Gen.18:18-19; Jer. 5:1-5; Ezek. 18:25-32; Ps. 25:8-12; Prov. 10:29; Jn. 14:1-7; Acts 9:1-6;16:17;18:24-26;19:9,23], and were the forerunners of today’s Messianic Jewish Movement. Let's not forget, that Rabbi Saul [Apostle Paul] taught that the Gospel, or "Good News" of Messiah should go to the Jew first, and then to the Gentile [Romans 1:16].

So let’s be like the Bereans who studied, researched, and investigated the Hebrew Scriptures [Torah, Prophets, Writings - Tanakh], known as the "Old Testament" as they did, so that we can see HaShem’s redemptive plan and Messianic vision for our lives, and the world He has created. This allows Jews to be introduced to their "Jewish Messiah", and allow Gentile [Non-Jewish] Believers to learn about the "Jewish Roots" of their faith, from a First Century Hebraic Perspective, in a "Post-Modern" world.
