The Church's Ministry among Jewish people (CMJ)  

St Mark has had strong links with Missions to Israel since before the 1950s. CMJ's history goes back to the early 19th century when a group of leading JewsChristians, including men such as Lord Shaftesbury, William Wilberforce and Charles Simeon, began to have a concern for Jewish people. Who was taking the Gospel to them? Who was speaking up for their rights and concerns?

orthadox jewsThe Church's Ministry among Jewish people is a family and a team of believers, both Jewish and non-Jewish, whose aim is to support and encourage Christians and Jews alike in the area of Messianic faith through:

  • Evangelism
  • Encouragement
  • Education

CMJ is one of the longest serving evangelical societies associated with the Anglican Church and a pioneer in modern ministry among Jewish people. CMJ works in Israel, the U.K., Ireland, USA, Australia, Ukraine and Argentina.

Prayer Needs

  • That all Jewish people will have the opportunity to hear the gospel
  • For political stability to be restored in the Middle East and for progress in peace talks
  • For all those working amongst Jewish people that they would build culturally-sensitive relationships with Jewish people based on respect, understanding and love.
  • That these organisations would encourage reconciliation between Christians and Jews and between Israelis and Palestinians.

There is a prayer meeting which meets on the first Wednesday of each month in church to pray for the work of CMJ. For further details see Alma Blackshaw.
