Who we are


                                 CHRISTIAN FRIENDS OF ISRAEL – JERUSALEM


was founded in 1985 , when RAY and SHARON SANDERS moved to ISRAEL from the USA, with the vision of bridging the gap between Christians and Jews . They stayed during many Israeli conflicts, to stand in solidarity with the Jewish people, and started many outreach programs to lift up those in need through monetary donations and clothing. Ray and Sharon have emphasized the Hebraic roots of the Christian faith.

 

"FOR ZION'S SAKE WILL I NOT HOLD MY PEACE, AND FOR JERUSALEM'S SAKE I WILL NOT REST, UNTIL THE RIGHTEOUSNESS  THEREOF GO FORTH AS BRIGHTNESS, AND THE SALVATION THEREOF AS A LAMP THAT BURNETH."               ISAIAH 62:1

" THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD; I SHALL NOT WANT.

HE MAKETH ME TO LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES: HE LEADETH ME BESIDE THE STILL WATERS.

HE RESTORETH MY SOUL:

HE LEADETH ME IN THE PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HIS NAME'S SAKE.

YEA, THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, I WILL FEAR NO EVIL:

FOR THOU ART WITH ME; THY ROD AND THY STAFF THEY COMFORT ME.

THOU PREPAREST A TABLE BEFORE ME IN THE PRESENCE OF MINE ENEMIES: MY CUP RUNNETH OVER.

SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE: AND I WILL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD FOREVER."

PSALM 23 KJV
