ISRAEL – Christian Family Continues to Be Persecuted





Eleven-year-old Rivka's Messianic Jewish family continues to face persecution from extremist Jewish factions in Israel, according to Jerusalem Institute of Justice.

Rivka's father, a pastor, relocated his family after a car bomb exploded in the family's driveway.Now, their new landlord has received threats from Jewish extremists who want them evicted. Recently, somebody poured sugar into the fuel lines of their vehicle, which destroyed its engine. Earlier this year, Rivka was questioned by a prominent rabbi and two activists from Yad L'Achim, an organization whose stated goal is "fighting Christian missionaries."
Rivka's family is facing what has become a growing problem in Israel — persecution against Christians by extremist Jewish factions. I encourage you to pray God will provide for this family and protect them. Ask God to use the family's courageous testimony to draw non believers into fellowship with him.
