Simon Sabbach

OB Ministry | Beit Eliyahu

Simon Sabbach was born into an Arabic-speaking Christian family and grew up in the German Colony of Haifa. At the age of 16, during a youth camp in the United States, he realized that although he knew about Yeshua, he did not truly know Him personally. That night he placed his faith in Yeshua the Messiah and began a personal relationship with Him.

 

After working for 20 years in an engineering department, God called Simon into full-time ministry with Or Ba'Aretz Ministry (Cru Israel). He has been part of Beit Eliyahu Messianic Congregation in Haifa for 31 years and currently serves as one of its elders. His passion is to share the Gospel and to serve the people of Israel through practical acts of love while pointing them to Yeshua the Messiah.
