Mom is in the cockpit and Dad is in the bomb shelter with the children.
When you read about Israel’s “New Esthers,” female fighter pilots in the Israeli Air Force, including mothers with babies at home, flying into danger to destroy the missile launchers, stockpiles, and drones meant to rain down on Israeli homes, it stops you cold.
Thank God for courageous, brave women (and men) like that, fighting to protect their families from threats seeking to destroy them.
And it makes you think about the other moms and dads across the Holy Land.
The ones on the ground, pulling their children close when the sirens start.
The ones running for shelter with sleepy toddlers in their arms.
The ones checking on elderly parents who are too afraid to leave their homes and are running out of food.
Missiles and drones are relentless, targeting civilians across the nation. Families are spending hours in bomb shelters. Children are shaking at the sound of blasts. It is happening in kitchens, stairwells, and shelter rooms tonight.
The need is urgent and increasing.
This is where Christian Women For Israel moves quickly, with trusted partners on the ground who can respond as these critical needs change.
Your gift today helps provide:
Emergency meal delivery for the elderly, including Holocaust Survivors who are afraid to leave their homes.
Keeping community centers open so children can receive trauma care after this latest round of terror.
The purchase and placement of more mobile bomb shelters in vulnerable communities to provide added safety and protection.
Because of you, we can respond quickly as needs change and help reaches the most vulnerable without delay.
If you are a modern-day Esther, you understand what it means to step forward when the moment is costly and the need is clear. Proverbs 22:9 says, “The generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.”
And we hold close the Lord’s promise in Genesis 12:3: “I will bless those who bless you...” When you bless Israel in a time like this, you are standing inside that promise.
Will you give right now to help us meet this wartime emergency?
Those pilots are doing their part in the sky. Your gift helps us do ours on the ground, keeping emergency meals moving, keeping community centers open for trauma care, and placing mobile bomb shelters where families need protection most.
Modern-day Esthers, because of you, we know Israel and U.S. forces have a shield of prayer and protection around them. Thank you for standing with Israel, and for giving help that reaches the most vulnerable without delay. Give now.
