News Update | Here’s How You Have Changed Lives!
You aren’t part of a ministry just to receive biblical teaching that guides your path; you are also part of a ministry to make a difference. You are part of a community and a family that changes lives. And you have done just that. Here’s how you have changed lives in just a matter of months!
You’ve Changed Lives | Aleh Home
Throughout this past year, your faithful support has blessed and enabled us to answer the call to help special-needs children in Jerusalem.
Aleh is a house that supports 70 residents who are special-needs children. This home also provides day care for 70 more special-needs children who are able to go home each night.
How You’ve Helped…
We have come to know the staff at Aleh and have been able to visit with these beautiful children. These are precious lives that society may tend to forget, but you have not.
The directors and staff at Aleh asked for a simple donation—pajamas for each child. You responded to that request with just a small $25 donation, and we were able to deliver boxes of pajamas to distribute to many of these children!
Continued Support…
Our heart is filled to overflowing, knowing we have your support. When opportunities like this are presented for us to help those in the Promised Land, we can say “Yes!” because we know you share the vision to faithfully support and stand by God’s first love.
Let’s continue to find ways to support these precious lives.
“‘…for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’”
“And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’”—Matthew 25:35-36, 40

You’ve Changed Lives | Yotzrot
Yotzrot is an organization in Israel that rescues young men and women from the depths of human trafficking. This organization provides a home, education, counseling, and a chance for a different life.
Meet Nadir…
Nadir came to Yotzrot in 2013 as a transgender woman in prostitution. Over the course of 6 years, he has exited prostitution and entered into a new life that has revealed his amazing talent as a designer.
Through counseling, support, and safety, he is now in alignment with his true identity as a man and using his creative talent to build a career. He has won funding for a mentorship program, and his designs will be a highlight at the TLV Fashion Week 2020.
How You’ve Helped…
As a Covenant Partner, your support has allowed men and women, just like Nadir, to discover the truth that leads them down a new path for a new life. Your support allows us to provide meals and opportunities for these young people, helping them toward a new choice and enabling them to find a new hope.
Continued Support…
Together, we can give more young people trapped in the bondage of human trafficking opportunities for a different life, with a new light of hope.
Let’s join together as Covenant Partners to further our support and give young lives new directions!
“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”—Matthew 5:14-16

You’ve Changed Lives | Curt Landry Ministries Safe Houses
The Curt Landry Ministries Safe Houses—designed to provide assistance to young men and women who have no family support. These young people have endured trauma, neglect, and abuse. Because of you, they can receive the counseling and support they need to fulfill their dreams.
Update on Shalom
You may be familiar with Shalom’s story (click HERE to listen to his story). He has recently enlisted in the Israel Defense Forces and currently serves as a strategic defender in the Israeli Air Force.
He is in the final stages of his course and will be returning to his permanent base. Despite initial difficulty adapting to the military framework, Shalom will complete the course with his head held high after meeting all the requirements. He has become one of the leading and most beloved trainees in the course.
How You’ve Helped…
Your support provides a safety net for these young people who live at the Curt Landry Ministries Safe Houses. Your support provides…
- The help they need through counseling to overcome their past
- The job training necessary to find and keep employment and contribute to society
- The physical nourishment and care they need so they can focus on thriving rather than surviving
- A sense of family as they develop relationships with other residents and the house parents who guide them
- The love of the Father
Continued Support…
We have already made the commitment and are currently sponsoring a Safe House for young women in Jerusalem and one for young men in Tel Aviv. These Safe Houses have proven to be such a blessing to many young people who have made their dreams a reality. They are now on their way to successful careers within their communities.
Let’s continue the support and give more young people a second chance!
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”—Jeremiah 29:11
