Seeing the Image of God in the Forgotten
Compassion in the Streets of Tel Aviv There is another part of our ministry that takes place far from conference rooms and international gatherings. In Tel Aviv, we continue to reach out to people struggling with addiction, homelessness and deeply broken circumstances. These are people who are often overlooked. Some carry years of wounds. Some […]
Walking Through the Land Where the Bible Comes to Life
After completing his training as a tour guide, Aleksey has already had the opportunity to lead two excursions through Israel. What has been especially encouraging is seeing how people respond when the history and places they came to explore begin to open up questions about the Bible and about God. There is something different about […]
Building Bridges with the Next Generation, From Israel to South Korea
Building bridges between believers from different cultures is an important part of strengthening the Body of Messiah. And we had such an opportunity as some of our young adults were able to travel to a conference in South Korea.

Remembering God's Purposes for Israel
Recently, Pastor Aleksey had the opportunity to travel to Sweden for a conference about Israel. He was grateful to spend time with brothers and sisters who have carried a deep love for Israel and the Jewish people for many years, and to share with them about God's purposes for this land and its people. “As […]
A Calling to Lead and Serve
As our congregation grows, the need for faithful and Spirit-led leadership becomes clearer.

Canyons that Reveal the Glory of God
Our evangelistic tours take us to places where the glory of God is revealed, and this time we found ourselves in the desert canyon of Ein Avdat, a place where history, nature, and faith collide. From the moment we stepped off the bus, the canyon welcomed us with its quiet grandeur: cliffs streaked with gold […]
"Equipped for School" — Supporting Families, Living Out Faith
As the summer draws to a close and a new school year approaches, many families in Israel feel the financial strain that comes with preparing their children for school.

In the Darkest Corners, the Kingdom Comes
Just a few blocks from the busy streets and bright lights of Tel Aviv lies a very different reality, one most people try to avoid or pretend doesn't exist. Around the Old Central Bus Station, drug addiction, prostitution, homelessness, and brokenness are part of daily life. Here, in the shadows of the city, live men […]
Serving in the Midst of War – and After
During the war, and in the difficult month that followed, we’ve had the privilege of serving some of the most vulnerable around us: families who lost their homes, elderly Holocaust survivors, and those already living in poverty who now face even greater hardship. From the very first days of the conflict, we felt the Lord […]
