Polish Jewish in Poland


Polish Jewish in Poland

Jews have lived in Poland for about 1,000 years. Poland is overwhelmingly Roman Catholic (90%). Polish Jewry constitute fewer than 1% of its people, yet they have played a significant role in Polish history, usually as scapegoats. Indeed, during World War II, Nazis sent Jews to Poland to die in death camps and pogroms continued after the war. Today, their numbers continue to decline, as they emigrate to Israel and Western Europe and the United States.

Ministry Obstacles

Memory of pogroms, the Holocaust and anti-Semitism are the major obstacles to reaching the Polish Jew in Poland, a country labeled as Christian.

Outreach Ideas

Witness by Messianic Jews will partially offset tragic memories and prejudice. Repentance by Christians and the Church may heal spiritual wounds.

Scripture Focus

"You have made known to me the paths of life; you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’"  Acts 2:28

Scripture Prayer

Pray the Lord makes known to today’s people group the true path of life. Pray they learn to rejoice in God’s presence.

Prayer Focus

Pray that the Church would publicly and genuinely repent for its complicity in the Holocaust. Pray it would sincerely repent of post-World War II anti-Semitism and prejudice against Jews. Pray that such repentance would be accepted as genuine. Pray that Messianic Jewish witness would be well received, and that Christian witness would be seen as an act of love. Pray for a spiritual hunger among Polish Jews that will lead the way to thousands accepting their Messiah.
