Shalom dear prayer warriors,

Give thanks to the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the peoples, proclaim that his name is exalted. (Isaiah 12:4b)‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

We want to start this prayer letter by praising the Lord and thanking Him for answered prayers. We also want to thank you for faithfully standing with us in prayer and for interceding for the salvation of Jewish people, especially those we serve in South Africa.

We have been asking for prayer for creativity, opportunities to share the gospel and open doors into the Jewish community -- and the Lord has been answering. While there is still much work to be done, we praise Him for the fruit we have seen over these past few years.

We also praise the Lord for a very fruitful Passover season, connecting with churches across the country and having meaningful opportunities to minister to Jewish people during this time.

Please join us in praying for:

• the Lord to continue to supply all our needs (Phil 4:19) so that we can be faithful ministers of the New Covenant (2 Cor 3:5--6);
• the gospel seed sown this Passover season amongst both Jews and Gentiles. Pray that the Lord will guard that seed and for the Holy Spirit to water it, so that it will produce a mighty harvest in God's kingdom;
• greater boldness among Christians to stand against anti-Semitism and share the love of Messiah Jesus with their Jewish friends;
• our upcoming plans for outreaches to love and serve Jewish people across South Africa, and we invite Christians to join us in loving and serving Jewish people with the love of Messiah; and
• peace in the Middle East, and that many -- both Jew and Gentile -- would come to know Jesus, the Messiah, who has broken down the dividing wall of hostility and unites us all (Eph 2:14-15)

In Yeshua, our peace,
The Jews for Jesus South Africa Team
