Messianic Ethiopian Jews
Persecuted for their Faith
Tens of thousands of Messianic Jewish families have been living in encampments and villages on the outskirts of Gondar and Addis Abba. After they were invited to immigrate to Israel 19 years ago and gave up their Ethiopian citizenship the Israeli government's Interior Ministry closed all doors to Messianic Ethiopian Jews. Abandoned by their homeland survival has been difficult with little or no food sources, no access to clean drinking water or medical care and all for one reason: They refused to renounce their faith in Jesus. Responding to these desperate cries 271,000 vita-meals have just arrived!
