What we believe

“He will raise a flag among the nations for them to rally to; he will gather the scattered Israelites from the ends of the earth.”

Isaiah 11:11

Through the power of church, compassion and evangelism, Building Beyond Borders Israel works towards…

  1. Supporting persecuted pastors and congregations

2. Providing practical help and supporting the most needy

3. Sharing with both Jews and Arabs that Yeshua is truly their Messiah

Church

Our focus will be churches in Ashdod, Arad, Nazareth, Afula, and Beit She’an. These five congregations and their pastors are working to reach out to their communities, often in the face of hostility and persecution (relational, financial, and occasionally physical). Despite the ‘hard ground’ they sew in, they want to accelerate their impact in their towns. Our financial support will help them do that. [BBB in conjunction with OBFF]

Compassion

Dr. Herbert Goldberg is a holocaust survivor who has been in the ministry over 60 years. Together with his sons, Gabriel and David, he established an Israeli charitable organisation dedicated to sharing the love of Yeshua with the neediest in practical ways. This includes soup kitchens, food distribution, and clothing distribution in both Haifa and Jerusalem. Through this work the Goldberg family demonstrate that God’s compassion is for everyone, and our support will be used to further this work. [BBB in conjunction with A Lema’an Zion Inc.]

Evangelism

Rachel Netanel loves to open ‘blind eyes’ to the fact that Yeshua is the Messiah. Coming from a religious Jewish background, she understands how to present the Bible to Israelis – both Jews and Arabs – according to their culture. A key aspect of her outreach is based on the Jewish tradition of ‘hospitality’. Rachel opens up her home to any who would come, with each gathering comprising: food, music, bible teaching, fellowship and prayer. Through this type of outreach she shares Yeshua with more than 50 people per week! Despite much opposition to her work, many Israelis have accepted Yeshua through her ministry.
