Jews for Jesus is looking for volunteers who understand the value of Jewish evangelism, and can help us spread this passion with the millions of Christians who visit our website every year. While we have a fair amount of Jewish visitors, the vast majority of our visitors are Christians reading our articles.
Did you know that many Jewish people come to faith through the witness of Christian friends and relatives? With this in mind, we are looking for volunteers who can represent Jews for Jesus’ passion for the lost by helping equip our Christian visitors to know how to effectively engage Jewish people with the Gospel.
If you are interested in sharing your faith in Jesus with others, Jews for Jesus has a program that enables you to chat with seekers through the Jews for Jesus Live Chat platform. We have full training and mentorship to help you succeed.
What is the Online Evangelism Team?

The training program takes less than 6 hours for most people to complete.
Is there a time commitment required?
There is no specific time commitment. You can spend 1 or 2 hours at a time for maximum efficiency, but dates and times are flexible! Chat when it is convenient for you. There are always visitors waiting to chat with us, so there is never a dull moment.
