About Us

We invite you to join our Aviv Fellowship, The Aviv Gathering, where you will be challenged to learn more about the Bible!  A Rood Awakening was founded by Micheal Rood over 15 years ago, which is a non-profit ministry dedicated to restoring the Hebrew Roots of the Christian faith.  Micheal Rood is famous for his no- nonsense teaching style, Michael Rood reveals the beauty and simplicity of the Gospel, while exposing Christian traditions and fairy tales that prevent believers from realizing their true calling Aviv Gathering is for anyone who wants to get back to the Hebrew Roots of the Christian faith.  If you’ve ever read the Bible and found things that didn’t line up, or heard a sermon that left you with more questions than answers.  If you’ve been desperate for “something more,” be prepared to learn the answers that will change your life, revitalize your relationship with your Creator, and shine light on the evidence that proves the Bible’s veracity.  Good News… We’ve got your answers! We ARE… Guardians of the Aviv!  We are standing together uniting against conformity and compromise.  As Roman said, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”  We are contending for the faith once delivered to the saints. We are holding tight to scriptural truths that have been diminished or ignored for centuries.  As Guardians of the Aviv, we: • Guard the Aviv (the head of the biblical year according to the Astronomically and Agriculturally Corrected Biblical Hebrew Calendar). • Guard the Creator’s time clock and His methods of time keeping. • Guard the 7th day Sabbath as commanded in the 4th commandment. • Guard THE Prophet Yeshua Messiah. • Stand together against conformity and compromise. We are, as the TORAH says, Guardians of the Aviv!  We are Guardians of the Creator’s Calendar and of his time clock!  We are Guardians of the Sabbath!  We are Guardians of thee Prophet of whom Moses prophesied.  The Prophet that we are commanded that we must “Shamar”, we must hear and obey. Our motto is found in Matthew 4:4 as YeHoVaH answer every one of Satan’s temptations by saying “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”  Taking his authority from the Torah and taking us all directly back to the Torah for the foundation of all truth. We are not like so many Hebrew Roots out there that want to say that every word, every pages of the TORAH is about the Messiah.  We know it’s about him.  Let’s get to what the Messiah said to do and let’s do it!  Let’s quit telling stories and get into the words of the Prophet, let’s understand it and do it.  That’s what the Avia Gathering is all about! If you stand on the TORAH, if you obey it, if you guard the Sabbath, if you guard the Aviv, if you want to take a stand and be Hanukkah Warrior, join our fellowship! We cannot extrapolate parables beyond the limits of that which they were originally meant to communicate. We cannot concoct prophetic shadow pictures out of every Biblical incident or any imaginable circumstance in life. Some circumstances in life are the result of the leading of the Holy Spirit.  While others are random chance coincidence. Not every breath we take, or turn we decide to make at the last second in response to a vehicle turning in front of us can be attributed to the direct intervention of the Almighty.  Every thought is not predestined nor is every action on our part confined to His perfect will for our lives.  He lives in us, and experiences life through us. Your response to a stimulus results in your actions.  Those who yield their lives to live according to the instructions in the Torah, will find themselves on a path that is ordained by YeHoVaH and blessed by YeHoVaH. The Aviv Gathering is looking to restore the kingdom of YeHoVaH as we await our king Yeshua (Jesus): We are Guardians of the Sabbath! We are Guardians of the Creator’s time clock! We are Guardians of our Prophet Yeshua HaMoshiach! We stand against conformity and compromise in a world of conformity and compromise! We ARE…… Guardians of the Aviv!
