Equipping and Building up Israeli Pastors — A Special Cyprus Retreat

 

It is no easy task to shepherd a congregation, and it becomes extra challenging when you’re pastoring a local congregation in a complex country like Israel.

The calling to be a pastor is a remarkable one. Considering how much God loves people, it is no surprise that He doesn’t anoint just anyone to pastor His people. It is no secret that pastors carry a great deal of responsibility on their shoulders.

Our goal as an apostolic messianic ministry is to provide local Israeli pastors with an opportunity to be refreshed, recharged and restored in a safe and nurturing environment. Taking a moment out of a hectic schedule where it is all about people, and bringing them into a place where it is all about God and them, as He fills their vats with “new wine”, fresh anointing, guidance, training and a moment to just stop and breathe.

This is the type of pastoral retreat we had in mind when we set out to organize one.

It was important for us to provide this environment for our local pastors, which is exactly what we have prepared for this upcoming 11-16 December in Cyprus.

A total of 74 pastors and senior leaders will fly out to Cyprus to join our unique pastoral retreat and training.

In these uncertain times we’re living in, when the world is facing one crisis after another, we are in dire need of strong and godly leaders, our priority is to invest in equipping and building up the pastors in our communities in Israel.

We are still $7,600 short, which is the amount needed to help cover the remaining 25 (out of 75) pastors and leaders who will join our retreat in Cyprus.

Would you consider investing in Israeli pastors, providing them with the much-needed opportunity to be equipped, trained and recharged as they carry the great calling of shepherding God’s flock in the land of Israel?

If you help sponsor one pastor through a gift of $300, or 10 through a gift of $3,000, please know you are sowing into the very future of Israeli congregations that have a crucial role to play in the future of this nation, as well as the global body of Christ.

Thank you and God bless!

We live in a world where so much can change without warning. Plans change, circumstances change, people change, and sometimes things we thought were secure suddenly become uncertain.

When God Speaks of Zion:
His Protection, His Peace, His Blessing Over You

“Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!

For more than three thousand years, kingdoms have fought over her, nations have watched […]

Praying for you from Biblical Jaffa:
God still has the final Word

Shalom from Jaffa—biblical Joppa, one of the ancient cities of Israel and a place where remarkable events recorded in Scripture unfolded. As I stand here today, I am praying for you. I may not know exactly what you are facing as you read these words, what situation you have been bringing before the Lord, or what has […]

The beginning they didn’t expect
Finding new life in Israel

Anna had only recently made Aliyah with her three children. As a single mother, she was beginning again in Israel with a 20-year-old son and two daughters, sixteen and five—new surroundings, a new rhythm of life, and so much still uncertain. Then, during one of our recent times together with new Olim, our team began […]

Six lives changed in Biblical Jaffa

They had made Aliyah only two months earlier, and life in Israel was already weighing heavily on them. So when Irina found herself on a small bus heading toward Jaffa and asked what kind of excursion they had joined, our team gave her a simple answer: “We just want you to spend the day with […]

How will they hear?
Bringing the gospel within reach

There are Israelis who have lived their entire lives in the land of the Bible and have never once heard the Gospel clearly explained to them. They know the names of Abraham, Moses, David, and the prophets. They walk the same land where Yeshua lived and ministered. Many know His name—but know Him only as the […]
