In 1938—a decade before the modern State of Israel was formed—The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry began with a simple purpose: providing food, clothing, and shelter to Jewish refugees fleeing the horrors of the Holocaust. Our mandate has never been driven by government policies or political lobbying. It is driven by biblical compassion.

Paul reminds us in Romans 15:27 that Gentile believers have received spiritual blessings through the Jewish people, giving us a joy-filled responsibility to minister to them in practical ways. Showing Messiah's love isn't political alignment; it is honoring the root that bears us.

How You Can Pray:

• Pray for physical safety and peace over Jewish families facing rising global hostility.
• Pray for national representatives delivering daily medical care, food, and God's comfort on the frontlines.
