Palestinian Authority Poised to Reject President Trump's Peace Plan Before It's Unveiled Next Month With Memorial Day earlier this week in the United States, and the hearts and prayers of many Americans turned towards the soldiers and families who have given so much – even their lives – I can’t help but be reminded of the cost of peace. And it’s in this spirit that I’m writing to you today with our Middle East Update. Amidst the violence unleashed this month along Israel’s southern bor...

Empty Threats? Or is War With Iran Inevitable? As I write, the situation with Iran is still unclear. And the potential threat of war is significant. After the United States withdrew from the 2015 nuclear agreement, the rhetoric has only intensified. More sanctions – stronger sanctions – have been promised by the Trump Administration. And Iran officials have responded with resounding threats. Israel Caught In The Middle Tensions within the Middle East have already been high in recent ...

You helped deliver HOPE in Masvingo Zimbabwe has recently been wracked with increased hardship – through political and social upheaval, escalating economic downturn, and devastation in certain areas caused by tropical cyclone Idai. When we went to Masvingo, Zimbabwe, earlier this year, our desire was to bring hope. And the Lord was faithful to allow that hope to break through. The care He enabled us to offer was outstanding, breaking a record for the most patients we’d ever served in Zimb...

June 1‒7 Prayer for Israel Yom Yerushalayim - Jerusalem Day Jerusalem Day (beginning at sundown June 2) celebrates the reunification of Jerusalem under Israeli control. Prior to the Six-Day War in 1967, Jordan controlled East Jerusalem containing the Old City and the Temple Mount. When Jordan attacked, wanting to seize West Jerusalem as well, Israel defended and won the eastern portion of the city. It was a brief but fierce war in which 777 Israelis lost their lives and thousands more were...

Christians know it as the Feast of Weeks, or Pentecost. But for Jewish Believers in Yeshua (Jesus), Shavuot has an even more special significance. You see, just as God poured out the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) at Pentecost, He is pouring out His Spirit today. With signs, wonders and miracles, He is calling His Chosen People to embrace their Messiah. You and I get to be part of that. We’ve been chosen to carry His message to His people scattered among the nations - to many, like Asteld...

It’s no secret that Iran has backed and supported terror organizations for decades. Especially those who seek the utter destruction of Israel. Most specifically, today, terror groups like Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. And while all of us have been skeptical of reports that indicate Iran’s compliance with nuclear sanctions, the reality that Iran has removed any attempt of hiding its violent intentions has made the threat even more significant. Iran’s Nuclear Declaration Should Mo...

Earlier in the year, we told you about our first two Medical Outreaches of 2019. We are thrilled to report that the Lord enabled us to provide medical, dental and eye care for more than 20,000 people through those Outreaches.

Violence Erupts Along The Gaza Strip As Israel Comes Under Attack Violence erupted over the weekend along the Israel-Gaza border. And the death toll continues to rise. Years have passed since this area has seen such devastation and intense assaults. Within 24 hours, Palestinian militants reportedly fired more than 600 rockets into southern Israel. At least four Israelis have been killed. The number wounded is at 234 as of this writing. And as the alarms sounded in Israel, border roads w...

It’s spring, and for Jewish Voice Ministries International, that means congregational visits. Leaders from our U.S. headquarters travel to Africa and meet with congregations that have “sprung up” as a result of the Good News going forth in Ethiopia and Zimbabwe. When we bring medical and dental care in Yeshua’s name to these nations, we also desire to see locally-led congregations form that can provide discipleship and fellowship for the new Believers. It’s happening! Currently, more than 120...
