Saturday May 30, 2009

Today is the Sabbath which has brought a much needed time of rest.
This morning we attended Christ church and then later today talked and prayed about the current situation in Jordan and preparations for a heart screening in Amman, Jordan this week.
Tonight 30 children and their escorts flew into Amman from northern Iraq, in preparation for heart screening by an Israeli cardiologist on Tuesday. We have all been up praying and waiting to hear that the families arrived afely in Amman! There was a complication that with paperwork that was causing some concern for a while so it is a huge praise that not one of these families had to turn back at the airport.
P.S. Tomorrow is Pentecost! We've been focused on this celebration of the Holy Spirit - please join us in praying for a new outpouring within Shevet Achim and Jerusalem in general!

  1. Oh my beloved, beautiful Israel! I remember these places! It's been far too long since I went. My heart aches for Israel and the people- I will return one day and minister to the people if it is God's will for me. Maybe we can go together and minister, who knows? Please keep on taking pictures and posting them! I'm living vicariously through your photgraphs. :-)
