Your prayers for Amiel Ortiz have been heard. He is a miracle and continues to amaze the doctors. He is going to school and is playing basket ball with his team. Please continue to pray for Amiel and his family as well as Believers in the land. The people behind the bomb have never come forward, nor has there been firm commitment from the police concerning their leads of who did planted the bomb. As you pray for the Messianic Community in Israel, please note that many individuals and congregations continue to have disruptions and some even have threats upon their lives.
I met the Ortiz family. What a wonderful family that truly walks out the Fruits of the Spirit. The emotional and physical healing of Amiel is one to keep in your prayers. The next phase of healing includes the "natural" removal of the remaining metal particles from the bomb in his body, including a safety pin in his hip. The day I visited Amiel, David and Leah, his brother and sister, he had been put into a body suit that he has to wear 23 hours a day for an extended period of time. The purpose of the body suit is for the body to think of it as a layer of skin. The hour he isn't wearing it is to remove the bits and pieces of anything that has come through his skin that day. Reports from Leah tell us that the body suit is very uncomfortable. Please pray that the God of All Comfort will continue to bring his healing hand to Amiel. He's a great young man and a miracle and a testimony to Our God. Also, may the God of Justice prevail in this case. The person(s) who are responsible for nearly murdering this young man have not been found or if they are known there is still much disclosure.

During our May 2008 journey we began a grocery voucher ministry to help Messianic families within a congregation in Jerusalem.
Details on this monthly project is in my Summer newsletter. In Our January 2009 Mission we will be adding a second Messianic congregation to recieve monthly support to help families with their groceries.
We continue to send support to a Messianic family of five. They live within 2 kms of the Egyptian border in the Western Negev region.
We are involved in helping the Sephardim make Aliyah. This is exciting!! We are part of seeing Obadiah's vision and Biblical prophecy of the gathering of the Jewish people come to pass! The excitment of the Israeli government behind the community in the Negev that is being formed, I believe is The Last Exodus. As The People of The Book, together we will proclaim and we shall see eye to eye, the coming of Our Messiah.
The Sephardic Aliyah Center opened during the Feast of Taberncacles.
May the presence of the Lord deepen as you pray how you can help us be a blessing in 2009 to Israel.
