Back To Jerusalem 2011

Thank you so much for your prayers covering Back to Jerusalem 2011. God's presence and His direction was continually present with us. It is an awesome thing to watch God work. He does so much better than we ever could!

This year we changed our focus from mainly distributing packages of Christian materials to distributing food and clothing to poor and needy Arab, Jewish and Druze families with the hopes of sharing the love of Jesus with them. It is very difficult for locals to begin a relationship with the Druze especially. However, they love to have foreigners in their homes to learn about their culture and ways. Through inviting us in, the locals were also able to begin a relationship that they can now go back and follow up.

Once I heard that it is kinda like being pregnant for the 9 months but needing a doctor to come help deliver the baby. Locals often pray for years about opening an area but need the help of foreigners to help accomplish it. How great of God to allow us to be a part of that!

I will look forward to sharing some of the stories in a couple of weeks.
