The Nehemiah Fund
“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”  – Mark 16:15

Stepping into the Story……..
We believe that the rebirth of Israel as a nation is the fulfillment of prophecy and a key indicator of Christ’s soon return. As a Church, we follow the principle: “Find out what God is doing and join Him”  Therefore, we seek to join the Lord by assisting returning Jews and believers in the land of  Israel through prayer, encouragement and financial support. The Nehemiah fund is based on principles found in Nehemiah. When the Jews returned from captivity, he prayed, gave and rolled up his sleeves to rebuild the nation and assist the people of Israel.
“ I will bless those who bless you...” – Gen 12:3

This fund is established (and the monies given to it) for the following purposes:

1. Assist Jews returning to the land. God is bringing Jews home to Israel from all over the world in fulfillment of Bible prophecy (Eze 37, Mt 24) so we seek to assist them financially with airfare and absorption costs in the name of Jesus as a way to bless the covenant people of God.

2. Assist Israeli believers in Jesus – both Jew and Arab. Believers, both Jews and Arab, serve Jesus in ministries and churches in Israel. We will support them in prayer, encouragement and financially. Relationships have been established with Churches in Nazareth and Jerusalem and we partner with the Joshua Fund and its outreaches throughout Israel. Additionally, we support ministries that reach out to Muslims in Israel.
