Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel The Islamic calendar and the Jewish calendar are based on lunar cycle. The difference is that the Jewish calendar adjusts back to the solar cycle through a leap year every few years. The Islamic calendar continues just monthly. Therefore, from time to time the calendars overlap. This year there is an overlap between the Ramadan month (fasting and prayer) and the month of Adar (fast and feast of Esther-Purim). Ramadan and Adar occur at the same

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel When Peter stepped out of the boat to walk toward Yeshua, it was in the middle of a storm. The wind was strong. The waves were real. Yeshua didn’t calm the storm first. He simply said: “Come.” Peter didn’t walk on calm water. He walked on stormy water — because his eyes were on Yeshua. And in Gospel of Matthew 24, Yeshua tells us that shaking, wars, and uncertainty will come — but they are not the end. The end comes when the mission is fulfille

Harvest of Asher Akko, Israel Bearing names on our hearts - Breastplate photo by A.Teicher PikiWiki © Ezekiel 34 is one of the sharpest and clearest chapters in the Bible concerning leadership. “ WOE to the shepherds of Israel who have been shepherding themselves. Should not the shepherds shepherd the flock? ” (Ezekiel 34:2) This verse sets forth a simple yet revolutionary truth: a   leader exists for the sake of the people and not the people for the sake of the leader.

Shavei Tzyon | Return to Zion Congregation Haifa, Israel Shalom dear friends in Messiah Yeshua,  This report is more than a summary of activities ― it is a testimony to God’s sustaining grace and a sincere expression of gratitude.

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel From the early days at El Shaddai Congregation in Frederick, Maryland, alongside Asher and Betty Intrater, these dear friends and fellow laborers answered the call of God with faith, courage, and endurance. Long before many of today’s initiatives, structures, and global impact existed, they were there—laying foundations, stewarding vision, and serving with humility and perseverance. Each of them has exemplified a remarkable devotion to ministry

Tents of Mercy Congregation Kiryat Yam, Israel Love is a force that drives us to act. If it’s real love, it doesn’t just sit at home; it moves us to do something  – often practical, such as providing compassionate assistance toward people in need.  Love is also a force put into effect through the spoken word. Words actually matter a great deal. This is a lesson I have learned from my wife, who needs to hear how I feel about her often. Sometimes I think to myself, “ Wait, we s

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel This is the estimated number of innocent protestors who were slaughtered in the streets of Iran by the Ayatollah’s militias (IRGC and Basij). The protestors were primarily secular, liberal, young, and totally unarmed, the Gen Z of Iran. The regime cut off all internet connections so that the protestors could not organize demonstrations and so that the slaughter could not be reported to the outside world. In that media blackout, the militias sim

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel There are moments in Scripture — and in our own lives — when everything appears to be collapsing. Promises seem lost. Hope feels irrational. Faith is stretched beyond logic. And yet, when we look closely at God’s story, we discover a striking pattern: the moment that looks like the end is often the moment just before God’s greatest breakthrough. One of the earliest and most powerful examples is the story of Abraham and his son Isaac. In Genesis

Thanks to our partners and friends around the globe , we were able to send a second group of young Israelis to take part in a discipleship program at EKBALLO Ministry in Hawaii. We are deeply grateful for your faithful support, which continues to make these opportunities possible.   The cooperative program is the “baby” of Vered Blumenthal from our leadership team. The heart of it is to bring restoration, grounding, and spiritual renewal to young, believing Israelis, most of

Tiferet Yeshua Congregation Tel Aviv South Tel Aviv is Israel’s capitol of homelessness, drugs and prostitution. That’s where I and a team of volunteers go every week – heading out from our soup kitchen to bring warm food, first aid, and the word of hope to those suffering in the depths of hopelessness and darkness. In recent months, many we have ministered to have been very open to receiving prayer and are hungry to hear about the love of God that brings us to the streets to

Harvest of Asher Akko, Israel Joseph begins his journey as the beloved son, a young man carrying dreams too great for those around him to contain or comprehend. Instead of embracing him, his brothers are threatened and their jealousy drives them to throw him into a pit as described in Genesis 37.  Yet what seems to human eyes like an ending is, in God’s hands, a beginning. A dream planted by God cannot be extinguished by human action. It sinks deeper into the dreamer’s heart

Shavei Tzyon | Return to Zion Congregation Haifa, Israel Shalom dear brothers and sisters in Messiah! May blessings and mercy be upon you from Yeshua as well as God’s support for your loved ones!

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel When his brothers saw that their father loved him best of all his brothers, they hated him so much that they could not say a kind word to him… So his brothers were furious at him. ” (Genesis 37:4, 11) Jealousy leads to being offended, to hatred and even murder.  Let’s remember that God is totally-sovereign  and totally-good . He wants to bless each of us with good things. So, what could possibly go wrong? Well… if He gives each one of us good t

Prayer Points for a New Year Thankfully all but one of the remaining kidnapped hostage bodies have been returned to Israel. Proper burial is extremely important in Judaism so the return of the body of Sergeant Ran Gvili is number one priority. Please pray for his remains to be returned. The second phase of the ceasefire cannot be fully implemented until this occurs. In addition, because of the dangers involved, neutral countries are not willing to send soldiers to Gaza. Pleas

Tents of Mercy Congregation Kiryat Yam, Israel “But, beloved, do not forget this one thing,  that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years,  and a thousand years as one day.  The Lord is not slack concerning His promise,  … but is extraordinarily patient toward us…” (2 Peter 3:8-9) After a sunrise drive and an early appointment at a government office in Tel Aviv, we were ready for breakfast. Entering the address of a promising coffee shop we had found online into the map

As we come to the close of 2025, we simply want to say thank you. This year has been both good and challenging—a year that required faith, perseverance, and overcoming. We are deeply aware that the work we do in Jerusalem and around the world is far beyond what we could do on our own. It only happens because you pray, give, stand with us, and walk in relationship with us. You are truly part of this mission. This past year brought intense spiritual battles and real-world chall

Tikkun Global Jerusalem, Israel Abraham and Sarah were by no means perfect people. There were even aspects of their marriage that could be called quite dysfunctional. (He gave her to other men, and she gave to him another woman.) However they were people who also gave themselves to walk with the Lord in covenant integrity, despite their weaknesses. God changed Abram’s name to Abraham, and Sarai’s to Sarah. Both names were changed by adding the Hebrew letter " ה" (translitera

As we speak to you in the video you’re about to watch, our hearts are full. We are deeply grateful for your friendship and for the way you stand with us and with Tikkun Global. Here in Israel, we see something very clear: the next generation is searching.
