Rut Bara is a missionary with Jews for Jesus in Israel. She was born in Tiberias to messianic, Ethiopian parents who immigrated in 2000. Later, she served in the military, where she faced challenges that made her question God’s presence. After her service, she felt a profound emptiness, leading her to seek purpose and guidance. Encouraged by a friend, she joined a Bible study program. During this journey, she had a transformative encounter with Yeshua that reignited her faith and reshaped her understanding of life and self.

In 2022, she fully accepted Yeshua as her Savior and joined the “Mekomi” team, focusing on outreach to Tel Aviv’s homeless population. Many people she serves struggle with addiction and despair. Through this ministry, she aims to demonstrate God’s love and offer the salvation found in Yeshua.
