Glory be to Jesus Christ! Glory forever!
Before I articulate this week’s schedule, let me say thanks for your generosity:
First, we were able to raise $3,000 for relief in Gaza. If you’ve been paying attention, you know that there is mass starvation occurring, as a total of 859 truckloads of food entered Gaza in October, compared to a monthly average of 3,591 truckloads so far this year. God willing, the IOCC and other GMOs will be able to deliver urgently needed food and supplies. For more info: https://iocc.org/where-we-work/jerusalem-west-bank-and-gaza
Secondly, We had a full table of supplies to send down to North Carolina courtesy of Justin Sanchez’s uncle. Alos many gave cash donations which will also be put to good use. If you’d still like to give in this ongoing relief effort: https://iocc.org/blog/urgent-appeal-for-hurricanes-helene-and-milton.
Thanks again, and continue to let God open your hearts to His suffering people.
