Musalaha Prayer Requests:
Young Adult Follow-up Thanks are conveyed for everyone who prayed for this emotionally intense weekend of discussing the Israeli and Palestinian narratives. The Lord truly blessed this event, providing opening and understanding between the participants as well as strengthened relationships. These young adults are slowly moving forward in their own personal journeys of reconciliation.
Women’s National Conference Uplift the women as they attend one of the annual women’s conferences November 19-21 at Kibbutz Almog. They will receive teaching on the difficult topic of forgiveness and the detrimental effects of unforgiveness. Pray for them that God would bless their time together and that it would move them one step closer to becoming true reconcilers in their communities. Please pray that all of our Palestinian women receive the necessary permissions to attend this conference.
Salim’s Travels Salim will be traveling to the United States in San Francisco, Denver and Chicago from January 22 through February 1, 2010. From February 14-21 Salim will be in Ohio, Canada and North Carolina. To receive a schedule of exact times and places where he will be speaking, please contact us, HYPERLINK “mailto:musalaha@netvision.net.il” musalaha@netvision.net.il
Building There is a need for space as their organization is growing. They are seeking the Lord’s guidance on which building to rent or whether they should purchase a facility. This building would allow room for their growing staff needs as well as a conference center fo groups who come for lectures. Please pray that God would lead thems in the right direction.
Thank you for your prayers for the Musalaha ministry. As you pray, thank Him for those who are out on the front lines, committed to show “true justice, mercy and compassion to one another” (Zech. 7:9), even as there is such distrust between the Israelis and Palestinians. Thank you for your prayers. They are being lifted to the throne of God’s grace as we faithfully partner with our missionaries.
