The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (also referred to as IFCJ or The Fellowship) is a philanthropic organization founded in 1983 by Yechiel Eckstein whose stated goal is to promote understanding and cooperation between Jews and Christians, and build broad support for the State of Israel.[1]

History

As the national Co-director of Interreligious Affairs for the Anti-Defamation League in Chicago, Eckstein, an Orthodox rabbi, began to forge partnerships with evangelical Christians. In 1983, he established the Holyland Fellowship of Christians and Jews to promote Jewish-Christian cooperation on projects for improving the safety and security of Jews in Israel and around the world.[2]

In 1988, "Ask the Rabbi," The Fellowship's nationally syndicated radio program, began airing on predominantly Christian stations.[3]

In 1991, the organization was renamed the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

In 1992, the first group of Russian Jews was airlifted to Israel by the On Wings of Eagles program, which has since brought hundreds of thousands of Jews to Israel from the former Soviet Union, Ethiopia, Argentina and other distressed countries.[3]

The Fellowship collects over $100 million a year in donations for Israel, half of which are spent in Israel itself, supporting soup kitchens, absorption centers, and bomb shelter renovations. $25 million a year is spent on Jewish aid programs.[4]

In 2003, Eckstein founded the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews of Canada;[5] in 2006, La Fraternidad Internacional de Cristianos y Judíos;[6] in 2012, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews of Australia;[7] and, also in 2012, a new Fellowship affiliate in South Korea.[8]

In 2014, Eckstein was awarded the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee’s prestigious Raoul Wallenberg Award. "Rabbi Eckstein and IFCJ have done so much to help so many of the world’s most vulnerable Jews and we are proud of all that we have done together to reach so many in need," JDC CEO Alan Gill said at the ceremony, which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attended.[9]

James Rudin, a senior inter-religious adviser for the American Jewish Community, described Eckstein as "well-respected within the American Jewish mainstream. Until he came along, evangelicals and Jews were like ships passing in the night."[10]

Eckstein died on February 6, 2019.[11] His daughter, Yael Eckstein, succeeded him as president of the Fellowship.
