…passing these on, from Mike Evans, of the Jerusalem Prayer Team:
I’m with Israel Defense Force soldiers. They’re asking for our help. They’re fighting the most wicked enemy Israel’s ever fought since the Nazis. Just today, (at time of writing) 15 soldiers lost their lives (now, many more). What they’re asking for is a survival knife that can attach to their vest and can be used to repair and reinforce their combat equipment and deal with the restraints on their weapon and in case of emergency for self-defense.

They’re also asking for CIT tourniquets. About 70% of the causes of death in battle are due to blood loss. Each soldier could put it on himself quickly and effectively along with Body Glide, which is used for abrasions and destroying bacteria because they do not have access to proper sanitation in the field. We’re in the middle of a battle. There’s no water for washing their hands.
They also need energy bars that have protein, amino acids, sodium, vitamins, and electrolytes, and energy gels that can sustain them when solid food is ineffective. Marathon runners use these gels. The soldiers are under massive stress and urgently need these products to save their lives.

I’ve hosted a prayer event for the victims of the hostages in which hostage families were here. My heart is broken because I held a mother and father in my arms whose precious darling daughter was taken hostage into Gaza. Among those I met:
- A young big sister whose little sister has been taken hostage into Gaza.
- A woman whose husband and two children have been taken hostage into Gaza.
- A young man whose grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, has been taken hostage into Gaza.

We need to do everything humanly possible to help the suffering nation. But we can’t do it without your help. I am asking you today to be the hands and feet of God’s love in action and reach out to bring comfort to those who mourn in Zion.
We are working to raise $200,000 to give vouchers to victims, their families, and the surviving family members of those who were slaughtered. This will allow them to buy food, clothing, medicine, and other supplies to replace what they have lost, and it will be a precious light of Christian love in action.
Your support of the Jerusalem Prayer Team today allows us to purchase food, medicine, clothing, and other necessities of life for the poor Holocaust survivors, as well as to continue to operate the Friends of Zion Museum, to stand up and speak out for Israel, and to meet urgent humanitarian needs among the poor Jewish people in Israel and Ukraine. Thank you so much for being part of this vital worldwide prayer movement.
Your ambassador to Jerusalem,
Michael David Evans
