Each
day, we hear more and more reports of people trying to destroy Israel’s
economic growth through boycotts and other efforts at harming the
Jewish State. While many around the world might feel helpless in the face of this “financial warfare” against our beloved nation, now there is something that each and every one of us can do by BUYING BLUE AND WHITE.
Shop-a-fada is an original campaign backed by pro-Israel advocates and Israel’s leading online sales portal, JudaicaWebStore.com.
The campaign will offer the global community the chance to choose from
over 8,000 Israeli-made products and defend Israel’s interests here and
now – wherever in the world you might be found. The name Shop-a-fada
is designed to show our enemies that we can fight with the same levels
of international unity and passion that drive their campaigns of hatred –
their intifadas. But we will fight back without violence or terror –
but through active support of our beloved nation and people. With every
purchase, we make an investment in Israel’s future and help ensure that
those who attempt to destroy us will ultimately fail.
We’re also proud to have the American Friends of Magen David Adom
as our partners in this global effort and for every purchase you make,
we’ll contribute five percent to support their lifesaving work on behalf
of the people of Israel.So join us in spreading the word and show our enemies we’re resolved to support Israel- today more than ever.

AIPAC:
Dear Friend of Israel,
I have no way of knowing who you will vote for this fall. I don’t know whether you’ll vote Democrat, Republican or Independent.
But one thing I am confident in is this:
You want every leader you elect to share your support for a strong U.S. - Israel friendship, because helping ensure Israel's security is just as important as any other issue this election.
That’s why I'm writing to ask you to make a choice now that will be as important as the one you will make this November -- joining AIPAC. Join now and help us work with our current leaders in Washington as well as with the 113th Congress to make Israel more secure by ensuring American support remains strong.

Join now and help us work with our current leaders in Washington as well as with the 113th Congress to make Israel more secure by ensuring American support remains strong.
Your gift will make you an instant AIPAC member and will provide much needed resources at a critical time.
As
you likely know, this election will surely bring many new faces to
Congress – most of whom will be brand new to the issues our community
cares most about.
From
the rising threat of a nuclear Iran to the Palestinians continued
refusal to abandon their harmful U.N. campaign and return to peace
negotiations with Israel, we must be ready to work with all members of
the new Congress to tackle these and other challenges that lie ahead.
That’s
because AIPAC and its members work with Congress on more than 100
legislative and policy initiatives annually. We are the only
organization who meets with all 535 members of Congress and White House
officials on a regular basis to ensure American support for Israel is
always a top foreign policy priority.
And
when important legislation reaches the House and Senate floor, only
AIPAC has the resources to mobilize our community around legislation
that can affect the Jewish state.
But
we can’t do any of this without your help. So if you care about how
American legislation and policy can help or hurt Israel, please join
AIPAC today.
Thank you in advance for your time and support.
Sincerely,
Jonathan E. Missner
Director of National Affairs and Development

MAOZ:
In Israel a “critical mass” of Israeli believers is emerging. We as a
community of believers in Israel can no longer be completely ignored.
Last month at a Maoz staff meeting, we prayed a prayer of thanksgiving
that we are now a family of 20 talented and committed Israelis making up
the Maoz and congregational staff.
We are reaching out into our Hebrew-speaking world through media and videos, through books,
conferences, teaching, mentoring and through sharing one on one. The
best way to explain it is that “slowly but SURELY” the change is
happening.
The Israeli public and the media (and of course the ultra-Orthodox!)
know for certain we exist. Now it is we the laborers who are
commissioned to bring in the harvest.
You are laboring and harvesting along side with us. Together, we will see God’s sure Word fulfilled. All Israel shall be saved! And no matter what, the gates of hell will not prevail against us.
And while we work in the harvest field here, the Lord has graciously
privileged us to meet a “stranger” and yet a brother - Ugandan Pastor
Umar Mulinde - and to minister to him.
When we saw the terrible act of terror that Islamists wreaked upon him
because of his conversion from Islam to Christianity, we immediately
thought of Yeshua’s story of the Good Samaritan. The Levite and the
Priest left a man sorely wounded on the roadside. But the Samaritan
cared for his wounds and put him in a roadside inn where he could
recover.
The
Israeli nation has been so generous in helping Umar Mulinde, a former
Muslim sheik turned minister of the Gospel. You can read his riveting story here.
Since his hideous injuries, through a series of miracles, he has
received free medical treatment from our Israeli medical system - and
will continue to - costing in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But
now he has been released from the hospital, although he must stay for
another four to six months in Israel to finish this initial period of
out-patient treatment. Maoz has therefore committed to provide
his housing, food and necessities for this period of time. The
approximate cost will be somewhere between $12,000 to $15,000.
If you desire to give an extra offering for this wounded warrior and servant of the God of Israel, please help us. Be encouraged by knowing how much God loves our caring for our wounded brother:
He... loves the stranger, giving him food and clothing. Therefore love
the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. (Deuteronomy 10:18-19)
Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed
of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation
of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food... I was a stranger
and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you
visited Me.’ (Matthew 25:34-36)
Together we will inherit God’s kingdom as we minister to the spiritual
and physical needs of the Israeli people and to the “stranger” God has
graciously given us the opportunity to help in his time of need.
For the salvation of Israel and the nations,
Ari & Shira Sorko-Ram

Joseph,

The day may soon come — God forbid — when
Israel has to once again defend herself against an all-out attack by
hate-filled, murderous Islamic radicals and terrorists who have sworn to
annihilate Israel and the Jewish people. Anti-Jewish hatred is also building in other parts of the world. In recent years terrorists have struck Jewish targets repeatedly — a Rabbi and his wife were brutally murdered at a Jewish center in Mumbai, India — Jewish children gunned down in France in front of their school — synagogues firebombed in Turkey, and sadly many more tragic anti-Semitic attacks. My friend, we dare not stand idly by while Israel is threatened with annihilation and Jews around the world are being attacked, murdered, and terrorized. But we can make a difference, by standing with Israel and answering the biblical call to be a “watchman” on the wall. “On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen; all the day and all the night they shall never be silent” (Isaiah 62:6). Your gift to The Fellowship will be put to use immediately providing critically needed aid such as bomb shelters, emergency vehicles, medical kits, and protective equipment in Israel — as well as other lifesaving security items needed to protect vulnerable Jewish communities in over thirty countries. Today, I’m asking you to help. We may not be able to change the course of global events, but we can stand with Israel and Jewish people everywhere by sending a message of hope and solidarity that we WILL NOT ALLOW hate-filled terrorists to attack Jews — or Christians — with impunity and that we will stand together in the battle for life, freedom and our shared biblical values. Please, show your support for Israel today by joining us in providing aid that will truly make a difference to Jewish people in the Holy Land and around the world. |

Part 2:
When
an alert for an incoming terrorist rocket attack occurs, hundreds of
thousands of Israelis like Bilha and her children have less than 15
seconds to reach safety.
My friend, the next attack could come at any moment and we urgently need your help to provide much needed bomb shelters for the people of Israel.More than one million Israelis live under a constant threat of terrorist attacks. In the past two months alone, over 145 rockets have been fired at innocent civilians. The Fellowship has been working to safeguard the people of Israel by funding the renovation and construction of thousands of bomb shelters over the past five years. Yet there are many areas that remain unprotected. That is why we are calling on faithful friends like you to help The Fellowship meet this urgent security need.Unrest and instability continue to plague the Middle East and we must stand with Israel during this volatile time. Please send a message of solidarity and commitment to the people of Israel by making a gift to help The Fellowship save innocent lives today. |
