Greetings dear friend

I pray this update finds you well and blessed! Please know that we are praying for you from Nazareth, and that we are trusting God for His blessings, protection, and grace upon your life.

This week's update includes the following:

  • "Are We Fulfilling the Will of God?" with Pastor Saleem Shalash
  • Humanitarian Center Update
  • Nazareth Big-Screen Project
  • Home Visits - Bringing Christmas Cheer into People's Homes
  • Prayer Requests
Our new Humanitarian Center is up and running! We've already purchased the grocery items in bulk to prepare the first batch of our Christmas food hampers. Today our team at Home of Jesus the King Church will start preparing 150 food hampers for distribution next week to the poor and needy Jewish and Arab families of Nazareth. We will be receiving the needy families at our new humanitarian center to bless them with these food hampers, as well as to chat with them over a cup of coffee. We want to build strong friendships and share the love of Jesus Christ from this humanitarian center with all people that come to us.

We believe that this center will be a launchpad for revival in Nazareth and will serve as a hub where both physical and spiritual needs will be met. It will be a place where everybody and anybody can come to spend time with us, to hear about the Gospel and the love of Jesus, and to receive prayer. We will also be providing coffee and tea at all times so that people will be able to sit down and rest a while.
We will also be offering people free Bible Calendars, Christian books, Bibles in Hebrew and Arabic, as well as evangelical leaflets entitled "Where are you going to spend your eternity?" For the elderly that visit our humanitarian center, we will be providing free Audio Bibles with earphones so that they can be edified by the Word of God.These free gifts will serve as powerful evangelical tools.

The fight for the hearts of the people of Nazareth has started so we need much prayer, especially during Christmas time, when we will be touching many lives with humanitarian aid and with the message of Christmas.

We invite you to also come and visit us one day here in Nazareth, so that you can meet the people whom we help, and for you to participate in our outreach and humanitarian projects. Our team will even prepare you on the best approach and method in sharing the Gospel with the people of Nazareth!

Since the humanitarian center is an ongoing project, you are welcome to support the rent of the facility as well as the projects that flow from there with your donation. We still have quite a few needs to fill, like comfortable couches for people to relax in, as well as a coffee machine.

Thank you and God bless!
One of our most significant and impacting projects to date will be our big-screen project in downtown Nazareth. We will be running 10-second ads all throughout the day during the Christmas season on these big screen to reach people’s hearts with the message that “Jesus is the Reason for the Season.”

We will also share the scripture from Luke 2:10-12 that reads “But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.“

We will also be wishing everybody a merry Christmas on behalf of Home of Jesus the King Church! These message will be advertised in Hebrew, Arabic, and English to reach as many people as possible. Amen!
In the run-up to Christmas we will be visiting our church members at their homes to present them with Christmas presents, to wish them a merry Christmas, to pray with them, and to enjoy fellowship together in Jesus Christ. This is a unique opportunity to connect in people's homes, as Covid19 has forced us to transition to online church services. The Gospel is still flowing forth from Home of Jesus the King Church, but we do miss the face-to-face interaction as the body of Christ. These home visits will be a blessing as we'll be able to invest personal time with each family from Home of Jesus the King Church. It promises to be a time of blessing and joy!
Please Pray:

  • Nazareth is currently under "red" Covid19 restrictions due to a high amount of Covid19 cases, and for the time being we cannot leave town and most of the shops are closed. Please pray for a speedy recovery and that Covid19 cases will go down so that we can move around freely again
  • Please pray for the success of our Christmas food projects, big-screens projects, and our elderly projects, and that many lives will be transformed by the love of Jesus Christ.
  • Also please pray for our Humanitarian Center's growth and that it will serve as a platform for revival in Nazareth.
