Healthy Congregations GROW!

Update from Ashkelon

How can you tell something was well planted? Simple. It grows. Our recently planted Ashkelon congregation is proof of that. 

After several years of challenges and struggles due to external factors (such as the pandemic), we were finally able to open the doors of our new Ashkelon congregation, and the hunger is evident. 

We have seen how quickly it started to grow, with people getting saved and coming to receive the Lord after each service. Considering that evangelism projects are still being set up, and no active gospel outreach has taken place, it’s amazing to see people drawn to God and added to the church just because the hunger and spiritual need is there. 

We are witnessing God’s favor poured out on BH Ashkelon, and as they are gearing up to launch their much needed humanitarian relief efforts to support the poor and needy in Ashkelon, they need our prayers and support more than ever. 

Beit Hallel Ashdod has been sending leaders and worship teams weekly to help support their services and help grow the church. Pray for new volunteers and harvest workers to be raised, as well as for Ashkelon’s pastors Eitan and Yulia who are on the frontline of Israeli missions in the growing city of Ashkelon. 

We rejoice seeing this amazing response to a recently planted congregation, its remarkable growth is an indication that revival is at Israel’s doorstep. 

Please pray and become actively involved in Israel’s revival by supporting Beit Hallel’s network of local Israeli congregations such as BH Ashkelon.

When the Shofar Sounds:
Remember the God Who Still Speaks

As we prepare here in Israel to celebrate the Feast of Trumpets, I have been thinking about a sound that has echoed through the story of our people for thousands of years: the sound of the shofar. In Hebrew, this biblical feast is called Yom Teruah—the Day of the Shofar Blast, or the Day of Trumpet […]

All Things Are Possible

Sometimes we face situations where we simply do not see a way forward. We have prayed, we have waited, and maybe we have done everything we know to do, but nothing seems to change. After some time, we can begin to think, “Maybe this is impossible.” The Bible is full of people who found themselves […]

A Call to Draw Near:
Strengthening a New Generation of Believers in Israel

“Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to Him those He wanted, and they came to Him.” Mark 3:13 There are seasons when the voice of God can become difficult to hear beneath the noise of everyday life. Responsibilities, decisions, relationships, work, questions about the future—especially for young adults, life can pull the heart […]

When a Heart Begins to Open

Sometimes the most important thing happening in a room is something no one can see. A woman may sit quietly, listen without saying much, and give little indication that anything has changed. Yet a seed has been planted. The Word of God has reached somewhere beneath the surface. And sometimes it is only later that […]

He Saw Them —
Rosh HaShanah and Sukkot Evangelism Campaign

“But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.” Matthew 9:36 When Yeshua looked at a multitude, He never saw a number. He saw faces. He saw stories. He saw lives unfolding before Him—people carrying pain, questions, disappointments, fears, and […]

When God Leads You Somewhere New —
A Message from Joppa, Israel

There are seasons when life feels settled. Perhaps you have prayed for something, watched God answer, and finally reached a place where you can breathe again. There is nothing wrong with being grateful for that place. But today, standing in Joppa—the biblical city known today as Jaffa, on Israel’s Mediterranean coast—I am reminded of something powerful: sometimes […]
