Overview
Mission
The purpose of Highway to Zion Ministries is to educate and equip believers in Jesus about the Hebrew roots of our faith and the specific roles of Gentile believers and Messianic Jewish believers, functioning together as one new man according to the Scripture. In this process, we also inspire the worship of Yeshua (Jesus) imparting revelation of end-time Biblical prophecy, inspiring walking out spiritual destiny for every believer. We bless Israel, both believers and unbelievers and partner with and support Messianic congregations and others who are committed to the restoration of Israel with finances, service, encouragement, prayer and fellowship. We provide ministry resources, such as assemblies, events, educational classes, intercessory prayer opportunities, immersion and service tours to Israel. We are organized exclusively for religious, charitable, and educational purposes.
