Who We Are Messianic Literature Outreach (MLO), founded by Rachmiel Frydland in 1977, is a unique ministry seeking to reach the Jewish person through culturally sensitive literature. Rachmiel Frydland, Talmudic scholar, student in a top yeshiva in Warsaw Poland, and Holocaust survivor, was particularly adept at crafting literature for a Jewish mindset. Since his death in 1985, the ministry has continued through Elliot Klayman, now its Executive Director. The ministry is based in Columbus, Ohio where our executive director oversees the office. Estelle Frydland (the widow of the founder), Doug May, a lawyer, and Aaron L. Bortz, a business person - all Jewish believers in the Messiah - complete the ministry's Board of Directors. MLO produces a quarterly magazine that contains articles germane to an understanding of the Jewish roots of the faith. Two books, published by Messianic Publishing Company, a division of MLO, What the Rabbis Know about the Messiah and When Being Jewish was a Crime are very effective for reaching and educating non-believers. MLO also produces holiday and biographical tracts and other literature that is designed to answer pertinent questions that confront Jewish people. Additionally, the ministry distributes free materials overseas to such countries as Nigeria, India, and the former Soviet Union. Our materials have been translated into several languages, including Yiddish, Spanish, Russian, French, Italian and Polish. Through its Israel Outreach program, MLO distributes money to needy Jewish believers in Israel. MLO endowed a scholarship at Moody Bible Institute for students who demonstrate a desire to go into Jewish ministry, and has seeded a scholarship through the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregation's Yeshiva Program. MLO, pronounced M'lo, comes from the Hebrew word that means "full". It is our desire to fill the earth with quality literature designed to reach the Jew first with Yeshua, the Jewish Messiah. MLO's staff prays for the requests that come in and for the ministry needs.
