Unique outreaches in Israel in three of the country's major languages in Hebrew, Arabic, Russian are helping to accelerate the fulfillment of the Great Commission in the Middle East and have produced over 70,000 calls to GCM Ministries call centers there.
The Hebrew campaigns between 2008-2009 under the direction of outreach coordinator "Dan" produced 50,000+ calls to the Tel Aviv site alone. There are some 8,000 entries in the database of Israelis requesting additional contact, follow up. The campaigns put messianic Jews on the map in Israeli society, on national television and national radio.
The Arabic campaigns between 2008-2010 produced 12,000+ calls to call centers in Bethlehem, Haifa, Jerusalem. The Arabic churches of Palestine have not seen similar response from their nation. Other outreaches are planned.
One major Messianic congregation in Jerusalem has reported 35% growth in attendance after the Hebrew campaign was completed. Ads on 200 buses in Jerusalem were one part of the campaign.
The Russian outreaches have produced thousands of calls and responses as well. Multiple baptismal services have been held at the Jordan River. Among those baptized were a rabbi and a medical doctor.
