Before being called into Jewish ministries, Mr. Symes was a pastor for 20 years cutting his teeth in evangelism through open air street meetings and door to door evangelism while founding Fellowship Bible Baptist Church in the inner city of Baltimore. After being called to Jewish ministries, he was instrumental in working with his Florida staff to build an effective local church centered evangelistic outreach reaching both Jewish and Gentile people with the gospel. He has been involved in Jewish ministries for almost 40 years, and has authored and published four books, several booklets dealing with prophetic issues and is a regular contributor to Israel's Messenger, a publication of Jewish Awareness Ministries with whom he still serves as a National field representative and missionary in central Florida.
