The LORD saves us to have relationship with us. The LORD anoints us so that we will tell others the good news. The Spirit of the LORD is upon you.
Meeting and working with Israeli citizens and volunteers from many countries and having opportunities to serve in God’s Holy Land and observe first-hand the resilience of His people to adapt and thrive in spite of the trauma of war, testifies to our God’s power and love.
