from Rabbi Eckstein of Israel --There is immense speculation and interest around the second Blood Moon that happens tomorrow night. The prophecy discussions related to Israel and the Middle East are at a fevered pitch. The truth is, we cannot know what tomorrow will bring - these matters are in Gods sovereign hands, and we trust His goodness. However, we do know the poorest of Israels people are counting on us today as they attempt to recover from the Gaza war. We know that the needs of thousands of Jews are very real and unless we take action, many will have very little or nothing to help them survive. The postwar needs of Israels poor - including Holocaust survivors on razor-thin pensions, and also the working poor - are greater than ever! ifcj.org/site/R?i=oNTwkMuoel9BaswmgG63iw Jewish teaching says we are to accomplish the good God has given us to do today, without speculating about tomorrow. In Proverbs 3:27-28 we read, Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, Come back later; Ill give it tomorrow - when you now have it with you. That is why we must stand up and answer the call. ifcj.org/site/R?i=ND6hZCzlpr2rQSMnploFOw The Fellowship is the hope for recovery for thousands of Jews whose lives, homes, and businesses were damaged or destroyed by the rockets. Israels people are desperately hurting and need your care as they face the arduous task of RECOVERING, REBUILDING, and RESTORING their lives from the terrible effects of war. ifcj.org/site/R?i=A_YRM0UoOy6X0hnccMJCBw If you have never given to The Fellowship, or if it has been some time since your last contribution, please accept this urgent plea: Israels suffering poor have never needed you more than they do right now! Please act now with your much-needed support. Thank you! With prayers for shalom, peace, Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein Founder and President
