Every year, we are deeply humbled and honored to participate in the Reconcile Middle East Conference in Istanbul, Turkey—a sacred and transformative gathering where the Spirit of God moves mightily among His people from across the region. In a world often marked by division, hostility, and strife, this conference stands as a powerful testament to God’s unshakable plan for reconciliation, healing, and unity in the Middle East.
More Than a Conference—A Divine Appointment
This gathering is far more than just an event on a calendar. It is a holy moment, a divine appointment orchestrated by God Himself. Here, pastors, ministry leaders, and believers from diverse backgrounds—many of whom serve in nations where hostility toward Israel and Christianity runs deep—come together in brotherhood and love. Despite the political, cultural, and religious barriers that have long divided the region, these men and women arrive not with resentment, but with hearts full of faith and a genuine desire to see God’s Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.
The conference is a sanctuary of hope, a place where deep fellowship is nurtured, powerful intercession shakes the heavens, and heartfelt worship unites voices from every corner of the Middle East. It is here that bonds are forged not through shared nationality, but through a shared identity in Yeshua—the One who tears down walls of hostility and calls His people to be ambassadors of peace.
Miracles Amid Persecution
Some of the most incredible testimonies we hear at this gathering will never make the headlines. They are the stories of miraculous salvations, divine encounters, and supernatural breakthroughs in the very heart of the Middle East.
We have sat with former Muslim leaders who encountered Yeshua in dreams and visions, their lives forever changed by the revelation of the true and living God. We have wept alongside pastors who continue to shepherd their flocks despite relentless persecution, facing threats, imprisonment, and even death for the sake of the Gospel.
And yet, they do not waver—they stand boldly, proclaiming Christ in places where faith often comes at the highest cost.
Despite the immense dangers they face, these leaders refuse to retreat. Instead, they press forward, watching as entire families come to faith, underground churches grow, and entire communities experience the radical transformation of God’s love. Their courage, their resilience, and their unwavering trust in the Lord inspire us beyond words.
A Call to Reconciliation in a Time of War
In times like these—when tensions can so easily spiral into full-scale conflict, and animosity between nations seems impossible to mend—the call to reconciliation has never been more urgent. The Middle East is a region often viewed through the lens of division, yet God’s vision is entirely different.
He is calling His people to be peacemakers, to love beyond boundaries, and to walk in unity despite the world’s divisions.
This conference is a rare and precious opportunity to stand alongside our brothers and sisters in the Middle East, to strengthen and encourage them, and to witness firsthand how God is moving in miraculous ways—not just in Israel, but throughout the entire region. It is a reminder that even in the midst of turmoil, God’s redemptive plan is unfolding. His light is piercing through the darkness, His love is overcoming hatred, and His truth is setting captives free.
Counting the Cost—Yet Choosing Faith
For many pastors who attend this conference, the journey is not just physically demanding—it is spiritually and personally dangerous. The risk of being discovered, targeted, or even imprisoned looms over them as they travel back to their home countries.
Yet, they come anyway, not because it is safe, but because it is worth it.
They return to places where Christianity is often met with hostility, where evangelism is illegal, and where simply gathering in the name of Jesus can have deadly consequences. Yet it is in these very places that the Gospel is spreading like wildfire—where the Spirit of God is moving, where miracles are unfolding, and where the love of Jesus is breaking down generations of division.
How You Can Stand With Us
We invite you to stand with us in prayer—not just for our team, but for every pastor, leader, and believer who will be attending this conference. Pray for their protection, for divine provision, and for the Holy Spirit to move powerfully in every heart. Pray especially for our Arab Christian brothers and sisters, who are faithfully carrying the message of salvation into some of the hardest-to-reach places in the world.
And if God is stirring your heart to support the work of reconciliation in the Middle East, we encourage you to take action. Whether through prayer, financial giving, or simply spreading awareness, your support helps advance the mission of unity, healing, and salvation in a region that so desperately needs it.
Now Is the Time
This is not just another conference—it is a divine moment in history. It is an opportunity to build bridges, to stand together, and to be a part of God’s unfolding story in the Middle East.
Now is the time to act.
Now is the time to believe for reconciliation.
Now is the time to be part of what God is doing in the nations.
