About IBJM
The International Board of Jewish Missions was founded in 1949 by Dr. Jacob Gartenhaus. Brought up in an Orthodox Jewish home in Austria, he moved to New York City in his early twenties where he trusted Jesus as Messiah and Savior after reading Isaiah 53. God led Gartenhaus to become an ambassador to his own people, establishing the IBJM ministry.
IBJM Events
IBJM provides individuals, missionaries, pastors, and congregations with a variety of evangelistic training resources, tools, and skills so that they might be better equipped to carry the gospel of Jesus Christ to both the Jew and the Gentile (Romans 1:16).
IBJM Ministries
IBJM is a multi-faceted worldwide mission organization that reaches out specifically to God’s chosen people, the Jews. Most of our ministries are designed to help our current missionaries reach Jewish people, and enlist and train new missionaries to further the work of Christ.

Persecuted and beaten by friends and forsaken by his family, the young Gartenhaus was led by God to become an ambassador to his own people, establishing the IBJM ministry.
