We’re now exploring the possibility of adding a fifth service on Sundays, which has made things very busy and chaotic. With this growth, we’re facing challenges, especially with resources. We are in need of more staff and finances to support the demands of the ministry. It’s been a real challenge, and we ask for prayer that God will provide everything necessary to meet the needs of our church community. Our congregation is growing, particularly among young people, teenagers, and young adults, many of whom are still finding their footing financially. We’re praying for growth in this area as well, both spiritually and financially. It’s been beautiful to witness how many young couples are getting married and starting families. We are seeing the next generation of worshippers being raised, and we trust that in the coming years, we will see the fruit of this. However, maintaining our three church buildings and supporting our 12 staff members has been a financial challenge. Each month feels like a battle to make everything work, but we are so thankful for God’s faithfulness and provision. We’ve seen His hand guiding us, and we know He will continue to provide. Please keep us in your prayers, and any way you can lift us up would be a great blessing."

Pray for our local church in Beer Sheva, that the Lord would fill us with courage and boldness for the preaching of the gospel and the preparation of disciples, amid a context of rejection of the name of Yeshua and silent persecution. Pray for our Kol Kore Israel ministry, that we may be a bridge of connection among the nations and speak the message of God’s Heart for Israel, to raise up intercessors, supporters, and workers willing to collaborate in the preaching of the gospel and be part of the advancement of the Kingdom in Israel.
