Mission Statement
Tree of Life Ministries is dedicated to sharing the Good News in Israel online and on the streets, equipping laborers for the harvest, saving lives from abortion, and reaching out with the Messiah’s light to the nations.
Online Evangelism in Israel
Our media evangelism team produces videos and social media content to give Israelis a fresh introduction to who Jesus - Yeshua - really is. We seek to communicate the message of the Gospel in a way that is compelling and connects with their own life and Jewish culture.
Reached so far:
- By God’s grace, we’ve had over 15 million views of evangelistic videos and articles in Hebrew alone
- Tens of thousands of Israelis have connected with us by chat, our evangelistic hotline, and in-person meetings
- Israelis from every background (ultra-Orthodox, Orthodox, traditional, secular, atheist, New Age) across the country have come to faith, and we’re following up with many more seekers
The Goals:
- To launch a new street interview series that answers life’s most important questions, reaching many Israelis effectively with the Gospel and also equipping many believers in how they can share their faith in everyday conversations
- To launch an apologetics video series that provides a solid foundation for faith in Jesus based on the Tanakh (Old Testament), and also answers common Jewish objections to our faith
- To reach over 12 million views of evangelistic videos in Hebrew this year alone (more than we’ve reached in any previous year)
- To generate 10 times as many private chats and phone calls per month from Israelis through robust ad campaigns
- To expand the engagement team so we can follow-up with quality answers for every seeker
- To produce a discipleship series using videos and live/online interaction, so that every new believer can be strengthened in their faith
The Need:
- If we can double our online evangelism donations, we can have 10 times as many private chats and phone calls and reach more Israelis than any other year
- Every $100 given per month reaches nearly 6,000 more Israelis with the Gospel per month (over 70,000 per year!)
- $3,500 per month enables us to hire and equip a new laborer in the harvest to share the Gospel with thousands more Israelis
- Total Estimated Expenses for 2023: $630,266

Pro-Life and Gospel Campaign
Over 2 million Israelis have been killed through abortion since the birth of the modern nation, and there are only about 10 million people in Israel. But we’ve launched a massive public campaign in Israel to:
- Help save children in the womb across the country through our videos and hotline
- Change hearts and minds about abortion until it is both illegal and unthinkable to Israelis
- Meet with families who had been considering abortion and called our hotline, show them God’s love practically by bringing them much needed supplies, and share the Gospel with them
- Reach those who’ve been involved in abortion with the Gospel of forgiveness and healing found in the Messiah
Reached since March 2021:
- Nearly 10 million views of our first video showing the truth about abortion
- Over 170 babies saved so far
- We’ve begun home visits for families in need, meeting practical needs and sharing the Gospel
- We held a groundbreaking street outreach, impacting thousands of Israelis with the message of life and the Gospel
- We’ve shared the Gospel with multiple women and men who have called our hotline after feeling convicted about an abortion they were involved in
The Goals:
- To launch a series answering common pro-choice myths with the truth, helping many more Israelis choose life
- To spread our two evangelistic testimonies that have powerful pro-life messages to several million Israelis each
- To establish a network of believers in every area that we can train and mobilize to visit these families, show God’s love by serving them practically, help them obtain monthly financial assistance that’s legally available to them, and share the Gospel with them
- To begin personal or small group meetings with those who have been involved in abortions where they can go step by step through finding forgiveness and healing in Messiah
- To equip more believers and hold more pro-life and Gospel street outreaches
The Need:
- Every $100 per month reaches nearly 6,000 more Israelis per month (over 70,000 per year!) with the message of life, helping many more to choose life
- Every $80 per month enables us to give a gift package every month to show God’s love practically to a different new mother and her baby, visit her in her home, and share the Gospel with her

Street Evangelism and Equipping
Our team mobilizes local Israeli believers to go out together with us to share the Good News and show God’s love practically on the streets and through various outreach events.
Reached so far:
- By God’s grace, we’ve had events with up to 100 local Jewish and Arab believers coming together to pray and then share the Gospel on the streets
- We’ve had thousands of fruitful conversations with Israelis, some of whom have also been healed on the streets, some of whom have given their lives to Jesus, and some with whom we’re continuing to follow up
- Partnering with a local food distribution center, we’ve made hundreds of visits to the houses of the needy and new immigrants, delivering food packages and sharing the Gospel with them in their homes
The Goals:
- To increase the number of outreaches to the poor, mobilizing local Jewish and Arab believers to share the Gospel together as one new man in Messiah
- To organize several even larger outreaches during major local festivals
- To foster unity through praying and sharing together, and to equip local believers for evangelism through brief teachings and practical experience at these events
The Need:
- Every $70 per month helps us print 1,000 engaging evangelistic materials in Hebrew that open up doors for us to share the Gospel with Israelis on the streets as part of our outreaches each month
- Every $650 per month enables one of our workers to organize more evangelistic outreaches
- Total Estimated Expenses for 2023: $62,497
