Sergey Brosov

Sergey was born in Ukraine and at the age of six, he made Aliyah to Israel with his mom. During the early years of their time in Israel, Sergey’s mom met Yeshua through a Messianic congregation called Derekh Emet ve Ha Haim, meaning “the way, the truth, and the life” in Hebrew.

Sergey was twelve years old when his mom sent him to a children’s camp led by Chosen People Ministries—Israel. Sergey enjoyed these camps so much that he wanted to stay as long as he could, and he found it hard to go home and get back to “normal life.” It was not until he was sixteen years old that he realized the reason the camp felt so different from the outside world was because of the love he felt there—and that this love can only be shared by those who follow Yeshua. This led Sergey to accept Yeshua as his Savior and Messiah.

Like many other young Israeli men, at the age of twenty, Sergey joined the Israel Defense Forces. Sergey served for four years in the Navy. During his time in Israel’s navy, Sergey felt that he lost a lot of his faith, and he felt the loneliness that comes with being a Messianic believer.

Thankfully, God restored Sergey’s faith, and he began to serve with Chosen People Ministries. Years earlier, Sergey volunteered to help our staff member, Maxim, run the children’s camps. He went on to lead teams and also helped our staff minister to Holocaust survivors.

Sergey served in our college outreach program, House of Living Waters, where he and three other young, committed believers hosted Sabbath dinners, interacted with students at New York University, and shared the good news with the community around them.

It was at one of these Shabbat dinners where he met his wife, Jessi. In the summer of 2022, Sergey and Jessi married, and then she moved with him to Chicago, Illinois, while he finished his degree at Moody Bible Institute.

In 2024, Sergey graduated from Moody Bible Institute with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Jewish Studies. He is now serving with the New York branch of Chosen People Ministries, reaching the young adult community and college students at New York University and various universities in the city.
