Dugit Messianic Outreach Center

About Dugit Messianic Outreach Center

Dugit Messianic Outreach Center is a ministry based in the heart of Tel Aviv with a mission to share the Good News with all Israelis, including Jewish and Arab citizens as well as visitors. At the center of our outreach is a coffee shop that offers a free first cup of coffee, creating a warm and natural opportunity to share the gospel of Yeshua (Jesus) or pray for those who come in. Since its beginning over 30 years ago, a congregation was established to disciple those who received Yeshua as their Messiah through the relationships formed at the outreach center. A distribution center was also launched to meet the needs of poor families and Holocaust survivors, opening another door to share God’s love with Israelis. In addition to these ministries, Avi Mizrachi founded the VIP House of Prayer to unite believers in Tel Aviv and throughout Israel, and to cover local ministries in prayer. We also host our annual women’s conference, BatZion, a special gathering where local women can come together for a meal, receive gifts, enjoy fellowship, and be prayed for—an event that strengthens, encourages, and pours into the women of our community.
