It was in Jerusalem, in 1966, that a burning seed of desire was planted in the heart of Arnold Fruchtenbaum. On December 1, 1977, in San Antonio, Texas, Ariel Ministries was born and the seed began to bloom. Ariel was founded to evangelize and disciple our Jewish brethren. Ariel Ministries is a Messianic Jewish Organization dedicated to the teaching of Judaism and the Messiah. Ariel means “Lion of God,” representing the Messiah Yeshua as the Lion of Judah.

Outreach

Through Evangelism and Discipleship

Today, Ariel Ministries has plunged directly into the missions by combining the two key areas of evangelism and discipleship, with a heavy emphasis on Bible theology and doctrine. We seek to develop a balanced program of reaching out to others, as we grow in maturity ourselves. And, today, there are thousands upon thousands of Christians eager to live well-balanced lives — sharing their faith, praying, diligently studying the Word and pursuing fellowship with other believers.
