Laurie Cardoza-Moore, Founder and President of pro Israel Christian organization Proclaiming Justice to the Nations (PJTN) is unveiling plans for the largest ever International Christian Prayer and Action Event For Israel to be held during the upcoming March convention of National Religious Broadcasters in Nashville.
Set to keynote PJTN's event on Sunday, March 3 at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville will be nationally recognized conservative talk radio host Dennis Prager who serves on the International Advisory Board of PJTN. Among the other key guest speakers for the evening will be Dr. Erwin Lutzer who serves as Sr. Pastor of Moody Bible Church in Chicago. U.S. officials said Israel launched a rare airstrike inside Syria on Wednesday. The target was a convoy believed to be carrying anti-aircraft weapons bound for Hezbollah, the powerful Lebanese militant group allied with Syria and Iran. Syrian Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Abdul-Karim Ali said Damascus "has the option and the capacity to surprise in retaliation." He said he cannot predict when the retaliation will be, saying it is up to relevant authorities to prepare for it. The United Nations has voted overwhelmingly to recognize a Palestinian state, but the Palestinians still face enormous limitations: They don't control their borders, airspace or trade, they have separate and competing governments in Gaza and the West Bank, and they have no unified army or police.
Gaza residents cleared rubble and claimed victory on Thursday, just hours after an Egyptian-brokered truce between Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers ended the worst cross-border fighting in four years.
The cease-fire announcement had set off frenzied late night street celebrations in the coastal strip, and raised hopes of a new era in relations between Israel and Hamas. The two sides are now to negotiate a deal that would open the borders of the blockaded Palestinian territory. International Fellowship of Christians and Jews Rushing Aid to Communities in Southern Israel11/19/2012 The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (The Fellowship) announced an increased funding of emergency aid for families in southern Israel and new security projects to assist communities in the line of fire. Rocket attacks on cities in southern Israel are continuing as the IDF launches a wide assault on terrorists and military infrastructure in Gaza Strip. Palestinian terrorists fired a rocket aimed at Jerusalem on Friday, setting off air raid sirens throughout the city and opening a new front in three days of fierce fighting between Israel and Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli campaign has been limited to airstrikes so far. But military officials say they are considering expanding it to a ground campaign. In the latest in a string of vandalism incidents to hit Christian holy sites in Israel this year, Calvary Baptist Church was defaced Monday. “The sign pointing people to the church was defaced with white paint with 'Justice' written on the wall next to the sign,” said Pastor Steven Khoury, the head of Calvary Baptist Church. Noted American broadcaster, and founder of Israel Always, Earl Cox, recently visited the Jerusalem branch of Israel's national blood center to show support and learn about Heart to Heart, a critical program to provide resources to ensure Israel always has a safe and plentiful blood supply. "With increasing turbulence in the Middle East, we are in a season of uncertainty. Christians have the opportunity to emulate our biblical forefather Joseph who prepared for a physical disaster and ensure the safety of the house of Jacob mentioned in the Book of Genesis," Mr. Cox noted. |
