Jewish Believers Holocaust Project

Our colleague Kelvin Crombie is working on a very special research project. For the first time someone is systematically surveying the fate of Jewish believers in Jesus (Hebrew Christians/Messianic Jews) who suffered during World War II. Up until now it has not been widely known that many thousands of such Jews died at the hands of Nazi Germany and their allies.

Very little hard evidence, figures, and stories have ever been assembled about these victims, and their tragedy largely remains an untold chapter in the history of the Holocaust. Kelvin is in the process of

collecting testimonies,
compiling names of victims, and
analysing how Jewish Christians were rounded up and murdered across Europe.

This is a giant and difficult task at which Kelvin has been labouring for several years. Please remember to pray for him and his groundbreaking research. Pray especially that historic material on these believers (sometimes known as non-Aryan Christians) will come to light in order that Kelvin may complete the project.
