ICEJ Caring for Evacuated Israeli Families

The Christian Embassy is truly on the frontlines of Israel’s fierce battle with Hamas terrorism, as we bring support and comfort to many hurting people.

One key area of our support is taking care of Israeli evacuees, as thousands of people from the southern and northern border regions have been relocated to safer areas of Israel, finding shelter in hotels, guest houses, youth hostels or other temporary housing.

For almost three weeks, the ICEJ has been hosting and caring for three evacuee families who relocated to a safe house we arranged in Tzur Hadassah, just south of Jerusalem.

Two ICEJ staff members have been on hand night and day to look after these traumatized people. Our team prepared the rooms for their arrival, and now have been taking them shopping or to the pharmacy, sharing a word of encouragement, offering a hug, or simply listening to their stories.

ICEJ staff member Tunde recently shared a personal encounter she had while looking after the evacuees, who are all coping with trauma and how to handle the ongoing crisis.

Your continuing donations to our Israel in Crisis fund will enable us to meet many more urgent needs in the embattled nation of Israel. Please give your best gift today.
