Israel Benvolence Fund is specifically involved with the Voice of Judah Ministries in Israel. We recently received an update about some of the wonderful things the Lord is doing there.
Despite the opposition that Messianic Jews continuously face in Israel, we have seen God open more doors for us with authorities than ever before simply because we are Messianic believers and we can make a difference, a lasting one.
The difference happens as Israeli believers share Habesorat HaMashiach (The Good News of Messiah).
Recently an Israeli girl heard the gospel for the first time from a friend of hers that attends our congregation. When she came to the congregation for the first time, she was deeply touched by the Lord and she accepted Yeshua as her Savior.
It was devastating for her to see her parents live a sad life without God, while she was being transformed daily. One day she couldn’t take it anymore, she broke down in tears and begged her parents to come with her to the congregation where she heard about Yeshua.
When they came and sat through the service, the Holy Spirit was obviously working in their hearts. By the end of the night they had received Yeshua into their hearts and became born again. It’s all because of their daughter who heard the Lord knocking on the door of her heart.
The difference happens as Israeli believers serve unselfishly.
God has opened tremendous doors for us as we were able to meet deputy mayor of Kiryat Gat and agree on cooperation in order to help the needy in the city. The Deputy Mayor was visibly touched by the fact that we are helping people and said that the fact that we care enough to help is already help and consolation in itself for many who are in need.
We are in the process of helping some families and elderly couples who live below poverty lines. They barely have enough for food and medication. Their apartment is in deplorable condition and they don’t have the resources or the ability to fix the damages in their flat that has become quite hazardous.
The deputy mayor has approached us and asked us to help fix and renovate their apartment. Their ceilings are full of mold due to constant dampness and their walls are full of cracks with big pieces completely falling off. We are sending a team from our congregation to fix up their apartment. With your help, we are also helping to provide food for Israelis who are hungry.

The difference happens as Israeli Messianic teens take time together to be with Yeshua in an upcoming conference which will strengthen and encourage them in their calling to live lives for His glory.
Please pray with us for this conference, for the young people to receive greater love, greater authority and greater anointing so they come back impacting more than ever in this nation.
