Our Messiah commanded His disciples to bring the Good News "to the Jew first" (Rom. 1:16) and "to the end of the earth" (Acts 1:8). There you have it: Jewish evangelism in New Zealand!

In the midst of intense natural beauty at the end of the earth, we will backpack alongside Israelis and share Messiah in relevant and relational ways. We will be partnering with believers in N.Z. at Sizzlers (see below), engaging in conversations, sharing our own spriritual journeys, and reading Scriptures together with seekers. It's an amazing opportunity to care for, invest in and share Messiah with Israeli travelers.

The team experience will be dynamic, with participants coming from Israel, the U.S., Australia and beyond.

Sizzler Outreaches - About 2.5 million young adults from all over the world hike through New Zealand each year, and 8,000-15,000 of them are Israelis. Typically, these backpackers are sensitive, intelligent, thinking people, and very open to discussing spiritual issues. Our evangelistic "sizzlers" have proven to be wonderfully effective in reaching these travelers. Along with a BBQ, our guests (typically more than 50 per event) receive "Backpacker Bibles," individual attention (and prayer) from our team members, and a see a presentation of a believer's testimony. Invariably, some linger for more meaningful conversation. These outreaches have been so successful that we will be replicating them in several New Zealand locales.
