The survival supplies project for the Gaza border town of
Sderot is where so many bombs have come over from nearby Hamas, and still do. We don’t want to forget them and the “inferno”
they just went through recently in the last skirmish (Hamas conflict escalation
began on May 3, after two Israeli soldiers were injured by sniper fire from
the Gaza Strip during the weekly protests at the Gaza–Israel
border. Hundreds of rockets were launched from Gaza at Israel, mostly landing
in Sderot by the border.)
This has been going on for many years, and the residents
are shell-shocked with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), in addition
to being financially constrained (lack of businesses in the area
now). They’ve
been “holding down the fort” there . . . but how much really can people
take?
This is a mission of mercy and
compassion.
We want to bless residents of the city with
survival supplies–various paper goods and plastic bags for the bomb shelters .
. . for use when families begin to get bombed again.
They are so deeply appreciative, and just feel loved that
people remember what they’re going through.
If you feel led to join us in
blessing the Israelis living near the border in the city of Sderot, please join
this month’s event for the sake of Sderot.
We simply can’t forget them.
Let’s together get ready to cheer their hearts in the hot Israeli month
of June.
