These are difficult times for our brothers and sisters in the north of Israel. As you may know, the region is facing intense challenges due to the ongoing attacks from Hezbollah. The impact is being felt by both Arab and Jewish Israelis, who are living under constant threat, many unable to sleep peacefully, uncertain of what tomorrow will bring.
In this critical moment, we at the Home of Jesus the King Church feel a deep calling to extend the love of Jesus in the most practical way possible. We are standing alongside the families of Kiryat Shmona and surrounding areas who are bearing the brunt of this conflict. Together with the municipality of Kiryat Shmona, we are working tirelessly to meet the urgent needs of these vulnerable families.
Through our initiative, Standing with the Families in the North, we are providing essential support, offering both practical relief and spiritual comfort to those in need. Many families have been displaced or are hunkered down in shelters, unable to work or provide for themselves. Our teams are delivering food baskets, toiletries, blankets, and other vital supplies to those who need them most through our collaboration with the municipality of Kiryat Shmona.
But more than just meeting physical needs, we are committed to bringing hope in these dark times. We believe that the love of Jesus transcends all boundaries and speaks to the heart of every person, no matter their background. This is why our outreach is focused on both Arab and Jewish families—because we believe that God’s love is for everyone.
As you read this, I ask you to prayerfully consider how you might join us in this effort. Your support—whether through prayer, financial contribution, or raising awareness—makes a real difference. Together, we can stand with these families and show them that they are not alone, and that the Christian community worldwide cares deeply for their well-being.
If God puts it on your heart to give, know that every contribution will go directly toward providing relief and support to those who are suffering. This is an opportunity to live out the Gospel in a tangible way, demonstrating Christ’s love through acts of compassion and solidarity. Thank you and God bless you!
