Robin Van Etten, the U.S. CEO and Global COO of The Fellowship, reflects on The Fellowship’s role and place in a world facing rising anti-Semitism in an op-ed with Townhall.com:
In addition to emergency response, one of the Fellowship’s most important initiatives is facilitating aliyah–the immigration of Jews to Israel. As anti-Semitism worsens, many Jewish families are choosing to leave hostile environments and seek refuge in their biblical homeland. The Fellowship helps make this possible by funding flights, resettlement assistance, and integration programs.
Recognizing that millions of Christians around the world support Israel and the Jewish people, The Fellowship has invested millions of dollars in programs that educate and equip Christians to speak out against anti-Semitism.
“We are not trying to change anyone’s mind,” Yael explains. “We are engaging our Christian friends in order to reclaim that friendship, to make sure that we will continue to have between 50 and 100 million Evangelical Christians standing with Israel and the Jewish people, no matter what happens.”
