Dear Friends,
The days for Purim are upon us. These are days filled with sorrow and joy, days that we are commanded to never forget. Many Believers will not even notice these days, but we who have been called to walk as Israel realize exactly what Purim is about – the war between light and darkness. We indeed have joy as those who walk in the light experienced victory then and they will win the battles to come.

We are instructed to joyfully send gifts at this season...

And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far, To stablish this among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly, As the days wherein the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day: that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor (Esther 9:20-22).

Therefore, I want to present to you an opportunity to send a gift to our dear friends in Israel – Boaz and Rina Dreyer. They currently reside in the Negev and are preparing the Land for our Shefa vineyard. However, this year is the year of resting for the land. No planting or harvesting is to be done.

But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for YHWH: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard. That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: for it is a year of rest unto the land (Leviticus 25:4-5).

With no time to prepare ahead, the Dreyers are living by faith on the new property that is to be Shefa. They are rich in many ways but could certainly use your help at this season financially. If you would like to send a gift to them please call our office, or you can make a gift online by clicking [Here] or visiting www.messianicisrael.com/marketplace and then clicking on "Contributions" from the right side of the page.

Every shekel you donate will go directly to Boaz and Rina and help them through this difficult season. I thank you on their behalf for your kindness.

Have an awesome Purim. Hooray for Mordecai!
