The Hebrew phrase l’dor v’dor means “from generation to generation.” It carries the beautiful responsibility God gave the Jewish people to remember what He has done and to faithfully pass it on to those who come after them.
In Exodus 10:2, God tells Moses that He is revealing His mighty works so that His people may tell their children and grandchildren about them. We see this same heart throughout Scripture: one generation declaring the works of the Lord to the next.
“One generation will praise Your works to another and declare Your mighty acts.”
—Psalm 145:4 TLV
We witnessed a wonderful glimpse of this at our recent Medical Outreach. Young adults from around the world served alongside veteran Outreach Partners in Zimbabwe, praying for people in the Prayer Tent and witnessing God answer in extraordinary ways. Their faith was strengthened as they saw deaf ears opened and people who arrived on stretchers walk out praising God.
As our team returns soon from Malawi, where Israeli young adults have witnessed God move among the Lemba Jewish community there, we are reminded that God is not only reaching communities with the Good News – He is also raising up those who will carry that Good News forward.
During this season of Elul, as we prepare our hearts for the High Holidays and the coming Hebrew year 5787, would you join us in praying for what God is doing from generation to generation?

Where is Jewish Voice going next? We’re headed to Malawi to bring humanitarian aid in the form of medical, dental, and eye care to a Jewish community and their neighbors of all faiths.

We are headed to Central Zimbabwe for our summer Outreach, July 9–19. We have been to this region before, but it will be our first Outreach in this location since the local Lemba believing community, Messianic Jewish Voice Zimbabwe (MJVMZ), has taken leadership of services at Mposi Clinic, the site of JVMI’s very first Outreach to Zimbabwe.

Pray for Israel during three significant holidays: Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance), Yom HaZikaron (Memorial Day), and Yom HaAtzmaut (Independence Day).
