Shalom dear friends,
I am writing to you today from Nazareth, where the days and nights have been filled with sirens, rocket alerts, and the constant awareness that our region is in a time of war. Like so many families across Israel, we are waking up again and again through the night when the alarms sound, quickly moving to places of safety and praying for God’s protection. It is not an easy time for anyone living here.
And yet, even in the middle of this difficult season, the work of serving people cannot stop.
At our humanitarian aid center, our team has been working steadily to prepare food packages for families who are struggling during this crisis. Many people have lost work, prices continue to rise, and the pressure of war makes daily life even harder. As we pack these boxes, we are filling them with basic essentials that every household needs—rice, oil, sugar, and other staple foods—along with hygiene products and practical items that help families maintain dignity during a very uncertain time.
Every package represents a household that will have something on the table. A mother who can cook for her children. An elderly person who knows they have not been forgotten.
We are serving both Jewish and Arab families during this time because the rockets do not choose who they fall upon. The sirens are heard in every community, and the fear is shared by everyone. As followers of Yeshua, we believe this is the moment to show the love of God in practical ways—to stand with the people of Israel and to serve those who are hurting, regardless of background.
Our team is preparing as many food packages as we can, but the needs continue to grow. Your support makes it possible for us to reach more families and place more boxes of food and supplies into the hands of those who need them most.
Thank you for standing with us during these difficult days. Your prayers and your partnership are a great encouragement to our team as we continue serving here in Nazareth.
We are praying that this war will end soon and that peace will return to this land.
Prayer Points
- Pray for protection over families across Israel during this time of war.
- Pray for strength and wisdom for our team as we continue serving the community.
- Pray that the love of Yeshua will be seen through every act of compassion.
Thank you for standing with us. Your partnership truly makes a difference.
Blessings,
Pastor Saleem
