The High biblical festivities that mark the beginning of fall are about to come to an end after Sukot, the “Feast Of Tabernacles” ends next week and as we had already announced, our team at the Ministry’s Social Outreach Center of “City Of Life” was very active distributing food aid to those most in need in our region, bringing them comfort and hope in the face of the difficult situation we are currently facing here on the border with Gaza and the Islamic terrorism of the organization Hamas, who constantly seek a way to carry out different types of attacks against Israel, weakening the economy and growth of the region and leading many families to depend on the social aid of the indebted city council that cannot cope with providing it, for this reason our Community service is essential and of utmost importance.
In addition to the hundreds of people who came to our center to receive help, many more found it difficult to travel to our center due to their mobility difficulties, among other reasons.
However, our team is in full communication with the most needy and vulnerable and is constantly aware of their situation, so we organized a home delivery of food baskets to meet the need of these people, in addition to a cordial visit full of love and words of encouragement that pleaded their hearts to know that they are important.
During the distribution of food in each home, each family was touched and we were able to reflect the love of the Messiah and experience how He guided us to bless these hopeless, bringing them the peace that comes from above and seeing how their grateful faces would smile again.
“But whoso hath this world’s goods and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up the compassion of his heart from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?“
1 John 3:17
If you feel called to be a part of the last days of the High Holidays, you can join us in our goal of reaching those most in need with the love of a father.
We invite you to be part of our ministry so that together we can bring hope to our border town of Sderot.
Our work would not be possible without the help of partners like you, that is why we ask you to consider in prayer the possibility of a monthly commitment that will allow us to continue with the Lord’s work here in Israel.
Sincerely yours
Pastors
