Be True!

As our Jewish young adults go off to college, they are faced with a myriad of hurdles. For instance, how will they manage their finances on their own? What will it be like to live with complete strangers in a dorm room? And what should they do when confronted with Christian missionaries?

This last question has become a focus of greater interest as more and more Messianic groups are Christian organizations are pouring in money to convert collegiate Jewish students, using professionally paid missionaries. Moreover, many Christian organizations are training their collegiate student groups to try to convert Jews. Not suprisingly, their Christian missionary methods have become increasingly devious, such as dressing up with Stars of David and presenting themselves as "practicing Judaism" to convert Jewish college and university students. With all of the growth and stress that students go through during their collegiate years, seeing through professionally-developed deceptive strategies is extremely difficult.

This is where Jews for Judaism comes in to help. Jews for Judaism is one of the top countermissionary organizations in the world. Jews for Judaism has always been aware of the missionary problem on college and university campuses. With the help of some generous donors, Jews for Judaism has created a program just for Jewish college and university students called Be True. Be True is designed to counteract the countless dollars and hours being spent on converting Jewish students. Be True will help Jewish young adults understand the truth of their faith, heritage and Bible. Check out the link below for more info:

Remember everyone, Be True to your Judaism!
