THE NEEDSince its rebirth in 1948, the State of Israel has blossomed into a vibrant modern nation and an economic miracle in the Middle East. Although Israel has experienced periods of relative peace and strong economic growth in recent years, the nation still has a higher rate of poverty than most developed countries

According to the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development Factbook 2013: In the late 2000’s the country whose population experienced the highest rise in poverty rates is Israel, with a significant portion of its population (approximately 1.7 million people), living below the poverty line.

REACHING OUT IN LOVEFor over 30 years the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem has reached out across Israel to touch the lives of those in need in every sector of Israeli society.

Our ICEJ Aid work encompasses a wide variety of humanitarian projects with all peoples who live in Israel, including Jews, Arabs, Muslims, Christians, Bedouin, and Druze. Our vision has always been to build relationships, foster reconciliation and share God’s love by responding to the many pressing social needs throughout the land.

We also pursue our biblical mandate to be a ministry of comfort to Israel and the Jewish people in light of the tragic history of Christian anti-Semitism. Our decades of experience in Israel ensure that your contributions reach the people who need it the most.
