About
We are Believers in Jesus committed to showing His love and sharing the life-changing message of the Messiah with Jewish people.
Interested in working at Jewish Voice?
Working at Jewish Voice is different. Here's why.
Many organizations offer humanitarian aid in the name of Jesus, while others share the Gospel. Some even focus on Jewish people. But Jewish Voice is one of the few ministries doing both: reaching Jewish people with both humanitarian aid and the all-important message of the Gospel.
We hear it over and over: Two of the best things about working at Jewish Voice are ministering to Jewish people and working with amazing people who love the Lord.
