A heartbreaking call from Jerusalem came into Israel's Crisis Hotline last week. The caller, a young single mother who is out of work due to COVID-19, is suicidal. 

She has no job, no food for her children, no meal for Shabbat dinner, no husband (he left her and their four children), and she doesn't qualify for any government funding because of a bureaucratic loophole.  Literally, she has no money and had no hope! 

Fortunately, she did have you! 

Because of your ongoing monthly gift and mitzvahs (good deeds) in support of Israel's Crisis Hotline, you provided a way for this desperate mother to find hope.

You live out the prophet Isaiah's words “and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.” Isaiah 61:3...

Thank you to our CW4I Ambassador Lisette Bonano who represented The Esther 414 Foundation across the State of Florida to provide vital lifesaving information and prayer to communities impacted by the deadly Coronavirus. Read the Charisma news article here by clicking this link or read below:   

In an effort to educate the public on both testing and resources available to help amid the COVID-19 outbreak, the Esther 414 Foundation is partnering with medical professionals and health organizations to create a free program available at COVID19TownHall.com.

According to a press release, one of the most notable services provided by the program is telemedicine visits. So far, about 5,000 people have visited the telemedicine website (CoronaTeleMed.org) and hundreds booked appointments to receive feedback on their symptoms and prescriptions for medicines through pharmacy partners.

The partnership began when Kirk St. John, founder of COVID19TownHall.com, reached out to Leah Miles,...

"For great is your love toward me; you have delivered me from the depths, from the realm of the dead." Psalms 86:13

COVID-19 has presented all of us with unexpected challenges. Holocaust survivors can be resilient, however, imagine Sara, a child Holocaust survivor who is following all the guidelines of staying safe and sheltering in place. 

Sara, who was in constant fear for her life as a child; who was separated from her parents and family.  She knows she is safe, there are no guns to her head now, or guards that threaten to hurt her. 

Nevertheless, she is alone in her apartment, isolated… She is reliving the memories of “forced” separations from friends and family as a Survivor in her 80s. 

What we have learned about trauma exposure, is that the conditions of uncertainties like COVID-19 may trigger agonizing memories and cause further psychological damage. 

As a CW4I Mitzvah Maker, you are truly a lifeline for the elderly on two...

"I will sacrifice a freewill offering to you; I will praise your name, Lord, for it is good."  Psalm 54:6

Each week Christian Women For Israel shares an opportunity with our community of modern-day Esthers to live out God’s word by doing a mitzvah, good deed! We call it our Mitzvah Challenge. This week’s challenge is unlike any other.

Thank you for reaching out to us to share how the impact the Coronavirus has had on you, your family and your community. We pray with you for healing, protection, and God’s divine intervention. We pray for peace that surpasses all understanding to come against the anxiety accompanying this deadly virus and the economic uncertainty.

“Observe the days as days of feasting and joy and giving presents of food to one another and gifts to the poor.”
Esther 9:22 

This week's Mitzvah Challenge is to give presents of food to one another and gifts to the poor in observation of Purim. 

The tradition of Purim is one of the most festive and joyous holidays on the Jewish calendar. The book of Esther commands that it be celebrated on the 14th and 15th days of Adar.

Jewish people celebrate life on Purim by hosting festivals, dressing in costumes, indulging in food and drink, and giving gifts of food to the needy. 

Purim is to be a time of "feasting and joy, of sending presents to one another and gifts to the poor." Esther 9:22

This year on March 9 and 10th, Jewish people around the world will give gifts to the poor in observance of Purim.

As Bible-believing Christians, the Word instructs, “There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow...
