Shoshannah Weinisch was raised in a traditional Jewish home and came to faith in 1980 through the ministry of Jews for Jesus. Shortly after coming to faith, she answered a call to share the gospel to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Shoshannah serves as a missionary alongside Stewart, her husband of 39 years in Brooklyn, NY. They have served with Jews for Jesus in the New York City area for 15 years. In January of this year Stewart and Shoshannah transitioned onto the National Online Evangelism team. Since October 7th there has been an increase in Jewish seekers going onto our Live Chat. Resulting for a need for senior missionaries to follow up Jewish seekers. Stewart and Shoshannah have answered the call and have already seen three Jewish people accept Jesus (since January)!

Shoshannah has a passion for the salvation and discipleship of Jewish women. Since the war in Israel began on October 7th, Shoshannah has seen a change in the demeanor of the women to whom she extends ministry. Shoshannah says, “Jewish people are asking about the end times and what the Bible says about Israel. The increase in antisemitism in NYC and around the world has created a sense of urgency for Jewish people to understand their identity from a biblical perspective. And many have a sense of hopelessness. Although it’s heartbreaking, I recognize a unique opportunity to offer hope in Jesus. I believe God has placed Stewart and me in this city and on Live Chat for such a time as this.”
