Shalom! I am amazed at God's faithfulness in providing for us and equipping us for every good work! One of the many ways in which He has blessed the work of Chosen People Ministries is through the provision of facilities for evangelism and discipleship. Why is ministry space so essential to our outreach? Seekers find a welcoming environment at our Messianic Centers that can lead to new life through the power of the Gospel. Our Messianic Centers provide a setting for worship, Bible study, spiritual counseling and practical help. They also provide meeting space for our Messianic congregations, bases for our short-term missions teams, and much more. Our Jerusalem Messianic Center is a hub of activity, hosting training conferences that draw Messianic leaders from all over the country in addition to short-term missions programs. It provides office space for our growing staff (now over two dozen staff members and spouses!) who are actively involved in outreach to Israelis, as well as to the homeless and hungry, single mothers, elderly Holocaust survivors, and children and families affected by war.
Our Brooklyn Messianic Center shines Messiah's light in a very Jewish neighborhood, offering Bible-based English classes, art classes, and a new support group for people struggling with drugs and alcohol. The Center recently held an outreach concert featuring the songs of a well-known Russian singer and composer, and Chosen People Ministries staff witnessed to the Jewish people who attended.
In South Florida, with a population of 750,000 Jewish people, our Messianic Center houses our congregation and is the focal point for Bible studies and special outreach events, especially around the Jewish holidays.
Ministry activities at our Messianic Centers in Berlin, Buenos Aires, Canada, Chicago, and Los Angeles are also touching hundreds of lives every week! We are in the process of locating a new Center in the San Fernando Valley - one of the hubs of the Jewish community in the greater Los Angeles area. The Center will open this fall in a highly-concentrated Jewish population center with considerable visibility. We have a great team in Los Angeles reaching almost 1 million Jewish people for the Lord! As we enter Chosen People Ministries' 116th year of preaching the Gospel to Jewish people, we are looking to ADVANCE the Lord's work through our "To the Jew First" Advancement Campaign, based on Romans 1:16. One of the key components of this campaign is expanding our ministry space in New York City and Florida, as well as opening new Messianic Centers in Boston, Tel Aviv, and in other places with significant Jewish populations that need to hear the Good News of Messiah! Would you partner with us in the "To the Jew First" Advancement Campaign by making a gift to ADVANCE Jewish evangelism? Your gift will help us open new spaces for ministry so that more Jewish people can hear the Gospel and more new believers can be discipled in their faith. Thank you for caring about the salvation of God's chosen people. Your brother in Messiah, Mitch |
