Jews for Jesus Canada Trades Lawsuits with Former Missionary

Wrongful termination? Donor theft? Who’s on first?

Christianity Today December 6, 2010

Lawsuits are breaking out all over Canada’s Messianic Jewish ministry community, as one of the largest organizations dedicated to reaching Jewish people for Christ is exchanging legal actions with a man who went to work for another one.

Marcello Araujo is suing Jews For Jesus Canada for wrongful termination. The organization let him go in 2005 for getting married without their counsel or consent, which they say violated the organization’s Worker’s Covenant. Araujo responds that he never signed the covenant. Jews For Jesus Canada, meanwhile, is suing Araujo right back, saying that when he went to work for another group, Chosen People Ministries Canada, he took a donor’s list with him. Araujo counters that he has only contacted donors he personally brought in for his former organization.

According to the National Post, a trial has not been scheduled.
