Praising the LORD for SHAVUOT / PENTECOST

                                                    Historical Synagogues in Prague, CZ

The Feast of Pentecost (Shavuot) is an exciting time to recognize the biblical gift of the Holy Spirit and gift of the Ten Commandments (Pentateuch) to the Israelites. Please pray for our partner congregations in Israel and Ukraine who reach out to Jewish friends and families during this important feast. God bless each one of you who have heart to bless and pray for the Jewish people to come forward to a personal experience with Messiah Jesus (Yeshua). He ascended to heaven and prayed to the Father to send us the Holy Spirit for comfort and power and peace / shalom!

Passover in Odessa, Ukraine

 

Pesach (Passover) outreach dinners with the two Odessa Jewish Messianic congregations provided new people to hear the good news of Messiah Jesus (Yeshua). Pastor Leonid and his wife Olga energetically shared the illustrated message of hope and the story of deliverance of the Jewish people from Egypt. Thank you for being partners of prayer and support so that more Jewish and Slavic people would come to salvation and become followers of the Messiah of Israel.

PURIM in Odessa, Ukraine

Recently, there was a Purim celebration among Jewish communities around the world. Thankfully, the two Odessa Jewish Messianic congregations did not have to cancel due to the war. Unfortunately, in Israel, most open celebrations were cancelled due to the attacks from Iran. Both New Jerusalem and Promise Land congregations had many people attend including first time visitors. People saw a drama and heard the Bible story of Esther and Mordechai. Jewish and non-Jewish people heard the good news of Jesus (Yeshua) as Messiah of Israel and the nations. People prayed for forgiveness of sins. Thank you for your prayers for these congregations with whom Messiah's Compassion partners on many projects. Thank you for supporting and praying for both ISRAEL and Ukraine during these ongoing wars. Messiah's Compassion will soon be going to Ukraine again for ministry among the Jewish believers (during the Passover season).

ISRAEL & Jewish people in Ukraine PRAYER focus

 

Shavei Tsion congregation from Haifa organized a men's retreat right before this recent conflict with Iran started. The men had a blessed time of praying for one another and sharing testimonies in addition to fellowship near the Dead Sea. (photo above)

Please keep praying for the situation of leadership to change in Iran and that the people would be free of radical Islam rulership. Pray for Israeli and US leaders to have wisdom regarding everything.

Pray for the wounded to be healed and restored. A Bedouin village close to Nazareth received a direct hit from a terrorists' missile on the night of March 13th. From 33 to 60 people were affected and were transported to hospitals in the region. 

Please pray for healing of Jewish Messianic Pastor Aleksandr in Zaporozhe, Ukraine. He has been working extended hours during the war, plus delivering food packages. Pray for his wife's and his protection and health, as well as their congregation members, and Jewish friends in the community.
