Protests in Israel
28 Mar 2023: While many feel the protests are necessary, others see that it’s not worthwhile to shut the nation down over the issues:
The stated purpose of the legislation is to build a balance of power between the three branches of government.
Keep Israel in prayers for peace.
Car riddled by 20 bullets
21 Mar 2023, Samaria Update on David Stern:
20 Mar 2023, Samaria: In the second Palestinian shooting against Jews who were driving thru Huwara in three weeks, a former US Marine, a dual citizen in his 30’s was severely wounded, while his wife fainted.
Huwara is located near Nablus (Shechem), about 20 minutes from here. Keep us in prayer for protection as we do our work in a troubled area of the world.
Three weeks ago, two sons of a schoolteacher in my village were shot and killed while driving a car through Huwara.

Spring Concerts – April – Brahms Requiem
14, 19, & 22 Apr 2023: Our spring concert season:
Brahms’ German Requiem, in other words, funeral music, translated into Hebrew, performed with our 16-voice choir accompanied by two pianists.
The text is a bunch of Scriptures about death, the grave, its unavoidability, and the future hope and resurrection; “we shall not all sleep,” and the last Shofar.
Our Scripture ensemble choir is named “Fiat Lux,” Latin for “Let there be Light.”

Israelis still united
13 Mar, 2023, Samaria: Amidst domestic issues, political upheavals, demonstrations, Israelis of various stripes and opinions still have enemies in the same land who would like to make all Jews disappear forever.
This broad-daylight shooting occurred in a section of Tel Aviv where I pass through regularly; in fact, this afternoon I’ll be in that area again. Please pray for the work here, in difficult conditions.
While Israel bickers over judicial issues, Arabs fire on Jewish shoppers
21 Mar 2023 Update on Or Eshkar, may he rest in peace:
9 Mar 2023, Tel Aviv Dizengoff Center:
This comes one day after Arab leaders called for more violence to protest Israel’s reactions to their terrorism:
As it turns out, many areas and highways were closed yesterday due to Israeli demonstrations.
Israel does not yet have a Constitution; as a result, there is still a great need for finding balance between the Executive Branch, Judicial Branch, and Legislative Branch. As it stands, Israel is not up to modern standards for free societies with this lack of balance.
Please pray, because we serve in a troubled place.
