By Troy Wallace Director of Congregation and Leadership Development Jewish Voice Ministries International I want to tell you about what the Lord is doing in Zimbabwe among the Lemba. At the end of April, we held a JVMI seminar in Zimbabwe for leadership training in Messianic Judaism.
I found the above headline in The Jerusalem Post both shocking and chilling. That’s why I am compelled to write today to make you aware of a very special situation in Ukraine.
The forced expulsion of Jewish People from Spain in 1492 represents one of the most tragic chapters in the world’s long, sad history of anti-Semitism.
Read about the 2015 Mberengwa, Zimbabwe medical mission that treated 7,659 patients in 5 days and saw 641 people receive Yeshua as Messiah in the Lemba community.
One of the most heartbreaking moments of each outreach comes on the last day. It’s the time when we have to walk out to the still very long line of desperately needy people and tell them the clinic is closing, and we can’t treat them. Your support of Jewish Voice means so much to us.
Shavuot is called the Feast of First Fruits because of the celebration of the harvest when the Israelites brought the first fruits of the soil as a free will offering to God. It is also known as the Feast of Weeks because we count seven weeks from a particular day during Passover.
I know I don’t have to tell you that the Middle East is already a volatile, incendiary powder keg. Even so, it seems the current U.S. Administration’s policies in the region are about to make it much more so.
“The world’s oldest hatred has reached surrealistic levels.” This was the sad but credible assessment of author and human rights activist Isi Leibler in an opinion column in the Jerusalem Post this week.
Thank you for praying for our Mberengwa, Zimbabwe Medical Outreach two weeks ago, and the Messianic Leadership Training that took place simultaneously. Because of your prayers and the gracious blessings of Yeshua, we saw challenges overcome, needs met, and lives changed.
