Shalom, dear prayer warriors,

Our prayer and heart's desire are that all Israel would be saved; however, we are clearly aware that there is a great cost for a Jewish person to follow Yeshua. For some, the cost is merely social, but for others, it could mean losing everything to gain eternal life.

Then Jesus told his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." (Matthew 16:24)

Please join us in praying for:

• our continued bridge-building efforts between Christians and the Jewish community across South Africa;
• the plans and initiatives across our whole global ministry as we look to significantly expand our reach and impact over the next five years;
• continued access to and favour within the Jewish community. We have a number of possible opportunities for us to connect with influential people within the community. Pray that the right connections will be made, which will lead to fruit in the kingdom;
• secret Jewish believers who are grappling with sharing their faith with their community and risking losing everything;
• those considering accepting Jesus as the Jewish Messiah, but who are afraid to take the final step because of the potential cost they will bear.

In Him, the Lord of the harvest,
The Jews for Jesus South Africa Team
