Israel Ministry Fund

For decades, our Israel Ministry Fund has ministered to the needs of Holocaust survivors and Jewish immigrants from around the world.

With the recent brutal attack on Israel, many families have been displaced, and the need for essential items is overwhelming. Your gift will help provide immediate assistance during this ongoing hardship.

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.” Psalm 122:6

Ukraine Relief Fund

 

IBJM has ministered in Ukraine for nearly 30 years with two families still serving in the country. Your gift will assist our missionaries, needy churches, and the spiritual and material needs of believers and non-believers caught in the midst of this brutal, ongoing war. Your donations will also help Jewish victims of the war who have sought refuge in Israel.

The new 3,600 sq. ft. museum includes a stunning replica of a section of the Western Wall in Jerusalem and exhibits depicting Abraham’s tent, the feasts of Israel, a Jewish wedding, famous Jewish Christians, and much more.

Please Note: The Everlasting Nation Museum will be closed on November 28 and 29 in observance of the holiday. Please phone 423-876-8150 to schedule a tour.

The Mission of IBJM

The ultimate purpose of the International Board of Jewish Missions is to bring the Jewish people in direct contact with the truth of the gospel. However, we recognize that the responsibility for evangelizing every nation with the gospel lies at the door of the local church. The Bible declares that the gospel of Christ is “…to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”

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.
