“—O LORD, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures—”. Psalms 104:24 (ESV)
Shalom and blessings, my dear friends
In recent months, Sabra’s activity has been very successful thanks to you. Your prayers and donations have allowed us to provide aid to those in need.
Helping Holocaust survivors:
Our work with Holocaust survivors, with God’s help, is ongoing. We offer daily activities, home visits, and a listening ear. We convey your love and prayers, and we help them materially using your donations. We are your emissaries, with the help of the Creator of the world, we find the people who love the God of Israel and His people Israel. Those who are praying and want to help with all their hearts, sometimes more than they can handle. And join them to people they can help.
We all have the responsibility to help the Holocaust survivors, who are a symbol of what happened about 80 years ago because of the hatred to the Jewish people. The suffering that Holocaust survivors endured is a living expression of what human evil can achieve. In contrast to this evil, there is a little comfort and light from those believers who say to their Creator, “We are your children, we are different.” We are the salt of the earth, and our mission is to bring comfort and encouragement to those who suffer. Sabra, we and our volunteers, provide essential medications and treatments, celebrate birthdays, and bring food, flowers, and vegetables.
One such visit was to a Holocaust survivor diagnosed with cancer, who, as per their own account, felt much better recently, thanks to the many prayers and blessings they had received.
Last Hanukkah, Sabra participated in numerous events for Holocaust survivors, including one in Tel Aviv that brought together survivors from different parts of the country.
On that occasion, we blessed you by discussing your prayers, we also distributed a gift to every Holocaust survivor: warm socks that a righteous woman who loves God and man knitted, food tickets, and a greeting card. On the first day of Hanukkah, we celebrated at the Sabra House, lighting the first candle of Hanukkah. The celebration was attended by Holocaust survivors, soldiers, and guests of faith from various countries, including Papua, who were also very excited. The soldiers’ objective was clear: to participate in the party to show their support for the Holocaust survivors and guests from those countries. They wanted to thank them for their unwavering support of the people of Israel.
At this event, a virtuoso artist who plays various instruments, a man of God, and a devoted believer volunteered.
The presence of the Shekinah was undeniable: in the prayers, the singing, and the joy.
Help for children, schools, and boarding schools:
Most of you are familiar from our updates on our help in these schools, which includes serving hot meals five days a week, renovating classrooms, providing high-quality furniture, teaching materials, and textbooks, and various kinds of enrichment for studies. Our goal is to give these children the same conditions and opportunities that children from more affluent families receive.
The cooperation with these schools is amazing. We work closely with the teachers and school principals, who are, of course, aware of the help they receive.
The Sabra team participated in the children’s Hanukkah celebration, including a nine-year-old girl who was fascinated by the atmosphere. One of the teachers invited her to join the children in the class, and she did. We also organized an event with the school children to make the elderly happy at the local nursing home in Afula. Sabra purchased doughnuts, which we distributed to the residents of the nursing home, along with singing and dancing with the elderly.
We are helping the families of evacuees and their children. Many families evacuated from the north live in Afula. Especially those whose homes were destroyed in the heavy bombardments, and who still have no possibility of returning to their homes. We provide various forms of assistance, including learning equipment for children, warm clothing, and food vouchers. Some children learn via Zoom and require computers, for which Sabra has provided several. For instance, we provided a computer to a ten-year-old girl whose mother is divorced and does not work. We also provide clothing and food. We also provide assistance to needy families.
On a regular basis, we provide food products, including meat, vegetables, and fruits, to needy families. We deliver the food with the help of local volunteers.
Helping NEW Olim ( immigrants).
In cooperation with the Afula Municipality, we help immigrants who come from different countries, including Russia, Ukraine, France, South America, and various countries from Europe.
This is not just a gesture; it’s a divine mandate, a responsibility we proudly uphold (Isaiah 11:12 / Isaiah 49:22). The ongoing increase in Aliyah to the Land of Israel is a clear sign of the End of Days. We will pray and bless: “Blessed are You who will restore His Shekinah to Zion, quickly in our days, Amen.”
Peace and blessings, my dear friends.
Helping soldiers and their families:
May the blessing of the Most High be upon you, your family, and your congregation.
From the home of good deeds, and the land of Zion and the city of Jerusalem
