In the article lead, on the second line it reads:

"generally considered to be a sect of Christianity, {refs here}, including"

The comma after the refs before "including" needs to be removed. 155.190.60.34 (talk) 02:22, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Missing word in UMJC reference

This is the current sentence: "Many of these congregations belong to the International Association of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues (IAMCS), the Union of Messianic Congregations (UMJC), or Tikkun International."

The sentence should read (boldface only included to show inserted word): "Many of these congregations belong to the International Association of Messianic Congregations and Synagogues (IAMCS), the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations (UMJC), or Tikkun International."

Since I do not have permission to edit this article, I submit this topic as a request to those who can to consider adding that word. All other references to the UMJC in this article include the word "Jewish" in that position. Rcobleigh (talk) 01:55, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
