We are in the midst of an intensive one-week outreach in "the other holy land" – Brooklyn, New York that we call Shalom Brooklyn. Please remember to pray for our staff and volunteers – about 50 of them – on the streets of Brooklyn sharing the Gospel with Jewish people. Additionally, some of our staff have joined brothers and sisters in the Philadelphia area who are sharing the Gospel at the Democratic National Convention. Please pray that the Lord will keep us cool, filled with His Spirit and provide lots of great opportunities to have personal conversations with Jewish people and non-Jews about the real answer to all of life's (and our nation's) problems – King Jesus! On another note, if you've been reading some of our publications you know that we have been following a prayer-crafted strategic plan to reach hundreds of thousands of unreached Israelis in Tel Aviv and its suburbs. We finally rented a beautiful place in one of the largest suburbs of Tel Aviv called Ramat Gan. We are now in the process of renovating the space so that we can have children's and adult's meetings, Bible studies, plant a congregation, and much more. Our team leader just asked me for the go-ahead to begin the renovation, and I want to pass some financial information along to you so that you can pray about supporting this great effort in Israel's largest city. Our immediate need is for $70,000 to renovate and furnish the Greater Tel Aviv Messianic Center. This is an especially reasonable price as it includes both retrofitting a bathroom for those with disabilities, furnishing a small kitchenette, creating space for children's ministries, a security and sound system, and of course painting, cleaning, and much more. I would love to be able to tell our team in Tel Aviv that we have the money to go ahead and begin the demolition and construction. Yes, I would like to donate to the Messianic Center! One of my favorite needs, one that my wife and I plan to support, is the purchasing of chairs! Imagine having a center where you are inviting Israelis to come in to hear about Jesus and there is no place to sit? So, in my opinion, chairs are a fundamental need and, though we really need your help for the entire project, you might not have the funds to do a whole lot and of course we understand this – but, surely you would have enough money to help buy a chair! You can do this for only $25. We only need 100 chairs - so please consider this as a small gift at this time if you are unable to help with more of the overall $70,000 renovation and furnishing budget. Yes, I would like to donate $25 to provide chairs for the Messianic Center! Thanks for taking a moment to read and to consider giving the gift to get our greater Tel Aviv Messianic Center off the ground! Many blessings in our Messiah Jesus, Mitch P.S. If you would like to participate in the ongoing expenses for the Greater Tel Aviv Messianic Center, which would cover rent and fees, the cost is $90,000 per year. Tel Aviv is an expensive city – but the greater Tel Aviv area has 3 million Jewish people! We can actually designate a monthly gift through our Watchmen for Jerusalem program which will enable you to help us with the almost $8,000 per month budget for ongoing ministries in the greater Tel Aviv area.
