Jewish Agency for Israel – North American Council

Learn about The Jewish Agency for Israel

In 1929, The Jewish Agency for Israel was formed and soon came under the leadership of David Ben-Gurion. The man who later became Israel’s first Prime Minister led as Chairman of The Jewish Agency and founded the state of Israel in the Promised Land.

For almost 100 years, The Jewish Agency has built the land and people of Israel, given physical, financial, and emotional support to Jewish immigrants in communities throughout Israel and worked to uplift all of Israel’s vulnerable in light of the vision of the prophets. The modern State of Israel would not exist without the work of this organization.

Today, Christians around the world recognize the prophetic and biblical significance of Israel’s rebirth as a modern nation. Scriptures foretold that this miracle would restore the Jewish people from exile across the globe and God would bring them home. When Israel was reborn in 1948, it proved to the world that God’s Word is alive and true.

Now Christians have an incredible opportunity to be part of God’s unfolding prophetic plan, to bless the Jewish people and strengthen the State of Israel. We invite you to stand together with Zion and become a Christian Friend of The Jewish Agency for Israel.
