Our Leadership

Jake Rosen and his wife Jeanne recently moved to Los Angeles, CA to work with Jews for Jesus. Presently the congregation is in transition but that is the way life rolls! 

Jake made the decision to accept Jesus as his Messiah when he was about 20 and life has been a joy with some hurdles but 47 years with Messiah Yeshua is an adventure. He and his wife, Jeanne, who married in 1982, have been devoted to sharing the message of Yeshua and building the Messianic community in and around St. Louis. They both earned Masters degrees in Inter Cultural Studies with a concentration in Judaica from Fuller Theological Seminary, CA. Jake holds a BFA in Painting and has had many showings of his painting series "The Vision of Isaiah". Presently the major pieces are on display at the Gallery at 2501 Rockford Ave. St. Louis, MO 63144.  Jake is also pastor emeritus  of Clayton Community Church (since 2023) and has partnered with Jeanne to lead Beit Chesed Messianic Congregation (since 2010).  A pastoral advisory council is in place to run services and we pray that God will be pleased. If you want to help grow the congregation just show up and roll up your sleeves! Shalom!
