Our Jewish ministry in Indiana is presently involved in direct mailing campaigns reaching 1,100 Jewish households in the greater Indianapolis area. We network with churches and Christians who want to reach Jewish people with the gospel. These believers have unsaved Jewish friends, neighbors, co-workers, or family members. We provide resources for them and, on occasion, meet their Jewish connections for coffee or dinner.

History of Jewish Work in Indianapolis
The work in Indianapolis began in 1943 with Miss Hoit and Miss Summers, who were on loan from another ministry. Joseph Hoffman Cohn even called Miss Hoit a “virtual dynamo.” Since the 1950s, Chosen People Ministries has been working with volunteers in Indianapolis to reach Jewish people with the good news. In 2010, the ministry brought in Jon Lieberman, who grew up in the city and has a great love for the Jewish people there.
