Mark Webb and wife Polly
Congregation Leader
Mark and Pollyanna Webb reside in Arizona with their 8 children, 10 grandchildren, sons and daughter in laws, along with their large multi-generational extended family.
Mark was affirmed as a congregational servant-leader on July 7, 2007, and disciples believers in Messiah Yahushua (Jesus), the lost sheep of the House of Israel, in the Hebraic Roots of our Christian faith. He serves as the congregational leader of Living Messiah Ministries in downtown Mesa.
Experiencing the land of Israel was life changing for the Webb family. They began studying the Hebrew roots of their Christian faith in 2004. Mark began serving as a congregational leader on 7-7-2007 and is currently building community from a Hebraic understanding at Living Messiah Ministries in Mesa Arizona and at Windmill Ranch in Bisbee Arizona.
Mark and Polly are passionate about the study of Biblical Astronomy, observing the prophetic patterns the heavens declare nightly of our Messiah. They are also devoted to the study of Biblical geography, history, customs, languages and the exile and gathering of the whole House of Israel.
The Webb family enjoys traveling and meeting the scattered family of Israel that is being gathered. We look forward to meeting you!
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.

Ralphie Cratty and wife Peribeth
Bet Din
Ralphie W. Cratty III grew up in New Castle, Pennsylvania and graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh with a degree in Visual Communications. Self-employed as a Graphic Designer since 1986, he has lived most of his adult life in Arizona where he met and married his wife Peribeth who helps serve with him in leadership at Living Messiah Ministries. They are blessed with a growing family of 4 adult children and now 6 grandchildren.
Ralphie came to a greater understanding of the scriptures after discovering the truth regarding the Creator’s name. This gave him a desire to re-examine his understanding of all the scriptures from the Hebraic mindset. He now has a deep passion for seeking out the scriptures and continues learning each and every day. Ralphie leads a weekly In-depth study each Shabbat before the main service.

Pat Shackleford
Elder
Pat was raised in a believing home and has had a personal relationship with the Messiah since childhood. She was married to a Christian pastor with whom she served for 50 years, the last 15 of which were spent proclaiming the Messianic message. Together, Pat and her husband raised six children. Her wisdom and experience are a valuable resource to the leadership of our Living Messiah family.

Paul Hebron
Elder
In 2017, Paul’s career as a Graphic Designer provided an opportunity to move from Washington State to Mesa, Arizona, where he and his wife Wanda visited Living Messiah for the first time and never left.
Coming to Arizona has been an incredible journey. Now, without Wanda by my side, I’m having to grow in my faith and experience another level of what it means to trust YHWH for everything!

Wanda Hebron
In February 2022, Wanda Hebron passed away from cancer after a three-year battle. The two met in 2002 and have four adult children between them and six grandchildren. Although both Paul and Wanda grew up in church and served in various leadership capacities over the years, they discovered the value of the Torah in 2012 and began their continued search for a deeper understanding of the Father’s instructions.

Dan Murphy and wife Renee
Elder
We moved from Washington state to Arizona in 2020. After 20 plus years in Christianity, we came to the realization that Sabbath was the sign between Yahuah and his people. That led us to a journey of re-evaluation of the entire scriptures to understand what Yah desires from his people. In light of that, we seek to live our lives pleasing to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Israel through his son, Yahushua, the Messiah. As an elder, Dan has committed himself to helping lead this ministry in accurately interpreting and obeying the whole Bible.
As the wife of an elder, Renee serves as a prayer partner and fellow student of the scriptures. Together it is our desire to help the leadership lead our assembly in the narrow path that leads to life.
