In these turbulent times, our hearts are heavy as our nation continues its fight for survival on too many fronts. Many of us in Israel experience sleepless nights, anxious thoughts, and the overwhelming weight of responsibility. The women in our community especially bear a unique burden, as they strive to provide comfort to their families and strength to their loved ones.
Recently, we organized a women’s meeting with one simple but profound purpose: to encourage, uplift, and edify each other as they navigate through their stormy reality. Bringing women together as sisters, sharing their struggles, fears, and hopes, served as a reminder of the unique strength God has given women, and their calling as His daughters to be a light in the darkness.
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
Proverbs 31:25
This is the kind of strength we prayed for in our meeting—the strength to look forward, even when the future feels uncertain because our trust is in God.
Our women’s meetings are more than just gatherings; they are sanctuaries where each woman can find rest, comfort, and a safe space in the presence of God.
We witnessed tears, and outpouring of sorrow followed by relief and healing that can only come from women embracing each other while clothed in the love of Yeshua.
In these meetings, our goal is to reach seekers who are searching for hope. We know that God’s love, revealed in Yeshua, is the most powerful force to heal broken hearts and weary souls.
Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). This invitation is central to these meetings.
Through prayer, fellowship, and sharing the Word, we want to surround each woman with the love of Yeshua, helping her find rest in Him. It’s here that many women discover, some for the first time, the deep, unchanging love that God has for them—a love that goes beyond all understanding and brings peace in the midst of turmoil.
We’re thankful that YOU are a big part of this crucial work that God entrusted us with.
We get to be your hands and feet that go, reach and embrace the hurting, as well as your heart that shows love to the people of Israel at a time when they need it most.
