July 21st, 2011

We met with the pastor again today. He is going to talk to his' superiors to see what they can do.
I have not yet posted many details about what we are going to Israel for or why.
We will be going with an organization called Hayovel.
Below is an excerpt from their website at http://www.hayovel.com

"

serving Israel’s Farmers

God’s deep unfailing love for Israel is well documented in His Word. God speaks through Isaiah with great emotion, “Can a mother forget (or replace) the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.”
Seeing and feeling our heavenly Fathers strong emotion towards the people and the Land of Israel caused our own hearts to beat with the same passion. It is this passion that compelled us to establish HaYovel, an organization that is uniting Zionist Jews and Christians to work together towards one common goal – restoration of Israel through the tending of the Land.
Now in our 6th year we have enjoyed a bountiful harvest – both physical and spiritual. We have seen the horrible partition that once separated these communities of faith begin to slowly crumble. The deep desire to humbly serve, to heal the wounds of the past, has birthed lifelong relationships in places most would esteem impossible.
We invite you, by faith, to leap into the prophetic pages of the Holy Scripture and join us as we sink our hands into the soil of God’s beloved Israel. Experience the incredible restoration of the Land and People God has never forgotten."

Website Link Added

I have now added a link to our website on the right side bar.
Feel free to head over there and see what we have up.
We have some neat pictures up, and of course should have more up soon.
In other news we had our first meeting with a pastor today to gather support for our Mission Trip.
It went well, but we did not have much time before his next appointment, so we should be meeting with him again soon to finish up.

Introduction

Hello Everyone,


We are two families raising money to go to Israel on a mission trip to harvest grapes from Israeli vineyards in the land known as Judea and Samaria when Jesus walked the earth.
We have felt the Lord put this journey upon our hearts to go and labor both for and with the people of Israel.
It is a blessing to bless Israel, to love them, to serve them, and to help them become strong in the land God promised them forever. We are so grateful and humbled that God would let us participate in the precious things He is doing.
We are families that have been believers in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and our Messiah Jesus for many years.  We love God very much and we love Israel.


We are raising money for this trip among other Christians, and anyone who wants to participate in that way, because God has led us to do this as an opportunity for others to get involved and help bless Israel.
Long ago God said to Abraham: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee and make thy name great; and thou shall be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you; and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.......
Genesis 12:2-3
