Israel Relief

Israel is hurting. It’s been over 600 days since the horrific attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists. Since then, Israel has faced ongoing rounds of attacks from Iran’s proxies: Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. Now Israeli civilians are facing a sustained, direct attack from Iran itself. In response to news that Iran was close to completing a nuclear weapon, Israel began launching strikes on June 13, 2025, to destroy Iran’s nuclear capability. In response, Iran has launched over 300 missiles at the cities and people of Israel, intentionally targeting civilians. So far, at least two dozen people in Israel have been killed and over 600 wounded. Israelis have been running back and forth to bomb shelters and safe rooms for days. They are tired, they are afraid, but they are standing strong!

What can we do?

There isn’t much we as individuals can do physically in this conflict, but, there are still great needs in Israel that YOU can address! Most importantly, please pray for the situation in Israel:

• Pray for God’s healing, security, and a peace that only He can bring about.

• As Israelis endure this difficult time of uncertainty and fear, pray they will seek the Lord and find Him in the midst of this ongoing struggle.

• Pray that Israelis, Palestinians, and Iranians would come to know the life-changing truth of the gospel.

Life in Messiah has staff and workers in various parts of Israel reaching out with the Good News of Messiah. In addition to having ministry centers in areas of danger, many who are close to our staff have been called up for reserve military duty. Please pray specifically for our staff, both for their physical safety and their emotional and spiritual well-being during this time. For more ideas on prayer, click here.

If you are looking for an additional way to help, be involved, or take action, you can donate here towards our special “Israel Relief Fund.” This war has had a long-lasting effect on people in Israel, both on our workers and those they are ministering to, and we are continuing to meet these serious human needs. We desire to see the gospel spread in Israel even more in this time when people are asking the big questions of life.

So far, since October 2023, over $103,000 has been contributed to our Israel Relief Fund. These funds have primarily been used to purchase food, water, and other essential products for people in Israel. These items are being stocked and used in bomb shelters, and being provided to the elderly, new immigrants, and those in need. As opportunities arise, prayers, comfort, and the gospel are shared. Donations are also used to support the work of a staff member in Israel who provides art therapy for those with trauma or PTSD.

Would you pray and give as God leads you towards this important work?
