In his letter to the Romans, the apostle Paul wrote:

“Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for them [the Jewish people] is that they may be saved.”

Romans 10:1 (ESV)

Please take a few minutes to watch this important short video from our CEO, Rev. Joseph Steinberg. He explains why our mission matters and why reaching Jewish people with the Good News of Jesus is so important.

For almost 200 years, in response to God’s calling, International Mission to Jewish People has been taking the Good News of Jesus to the Jewish people.

International Mission to Jewish People is a Christian charity based in the UK with a single objective: spreading the Good News about Jesus to Jewish people. We have prioritised this important work internationally since 1842, building a strong reputation within the sector. Our work combines personal evangelism, the planting and support of fellowships, the teaching of the Scriptures, and the equipping of local churches for faithful and sensitive gospel witness among their Jewish neighbours.

Of the 15.8 million Jewish people alive today, less than 1% have come to faith in Jesus. Yet the call to share the gospel with Jewish people remains as urgent and compelling as when the Apostle Paul declared in Romans that salvation comes "to the Jew first”.

Jewish people today face a world of growing hostility. Many of those living in Jewish communities are fearful and feel isolated. Anti-Semitism is on the increase worldwide, and it is into this climate of vulnerability that we are called to go: not only with the hope of the gospel, but with a genuine love and care for Jewish people who need to know that the Lord sees them, cares for them, and desires to save them now as much as he did when he sent his Son to live among them.

We know the transforming love of the Messiah. Our prayer and passion is that Jewish people may know it too.
