Preparing for Revival:
Help Us Renovate Beit Hallel’s New Evangelism & Discipleship Center

We’re incredibly thankful and excited to share what God has done!

After years of prayer and faithful ministry here in Ashdod, Beit Hallel Congregation has received a building—a space that will soon become our new Evangelism and Discipleship Center. It’s something we’ve hoped and believed for, and now by God’s grace—and the support of friends like you—it’s in our hands.

Right now, it’s just an empty shell. Bare walls, concrete floors, and a lot of work ahead. But we see the potential—and we know what this space is meant to be.

This center will become a place where:

  • Israelis hear the message of Yeshua, some for the very first time
  • New believers grow in their faith and get equipped for everyday life
  • Worship and prayer happen not just on weekends, but throughout the week
  • Kids and youth learn what it means to follow God
  • Conferences, gatherings, and training sessions help build strong, grounded leaders
  • Ministry workers are raised up and sent out to serve across Israel

This isn’t just another church building. It’s going to be a working hub for outreach, discipleship, and meaningful ministry. A place where people meet God, grow together, and step out to make a difference.

We believe it’s part of what God is doing in Israel right now—drawing people to Himself and preparing the ground for what’s ahead. As it says in Ezekiel:

“I will no longer hide My face from them, for I will pour out My Spirit on the house of Israel.”

Ezekiel 39:29

But before this center can serve its purpose, we need to get it ready.

We’re about to begin renovations, which include:

  • Full electrical installation and lighting
  • Drywall and partitions to create classrooms and ministry rooms
  • A central air conditioning system (a must in the Israeli heat!)
  • Sound and video systems for gatherings, worship, and teaching

It’s a big project—but we’re moving forward in faith. And we’re inviting you to be part of it.

If you believe in what God is doing in Israel, would you consider giving toward this next step?

There’s no pressure—just an honest ask. Whether it’s a little or a lot, whatever you give makes a difference. Together, we can turn this empty space into something that will serve people for years to come.

Thank you for standing with us. Thank you for caring about the Gospel in Israel. And thank you for helping us build something lasting.

With love and appreciation,

Pastor Israel Pochtar

Restoring Dignity to Our Children

In just a few weeks, the school year will begin again across Israel. Children will fill classrooms with laughter, sharpened pencils, and backpacks slung over their shoulders.

Mark’s Story —
Where Pain Met the Presence of God

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 Not every miracle happens in a church service or on a big stage. Sometimes, God shows up quietly—in a small apartment, on an ordinary day, with no lights or microphones. Just love. Just presence. Just Him. That’s what […]

This past week, during Summer […]

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.

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

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 […]

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 […]
