Baruch speaking in Buffalo, MN, this past Thursday.

We arrived in Minnesota on Thursday and Baruch spoke in Buffalo that evening.  We met with some of the church leadership for dinner and fellowship beforehand.  This congregation is very supportive of our work and we are very blessed by them.

Friday morning we caught a 6:30 am flight to Atlanta and then drove to Dothan, AL. There, we held our conference on Friday evening and all day Saturday, for the 4th year in a row.  We are so thankful to Mary-Jane who is our contact and coordinator every year.

Before the conference began on Saturday morning, I was speaking with several different people.  Each of them was talking about their desire to speak Hebrew, or live in Israel or to know more about the Torah, or something along those lines.  It really made me realize how I sometimes take for granted the huge blessing of living in the Land and knowing Hebrew.

Then the service began with a group of ladies doing a Davidic dance to the Jonathan Settel Shabbat Shalom medley.

It struck me and humbled me to think about the number of people who do love Israel, think about Israel and pray for this tiny country where we are blessed to live.

It is so heartwarming to see a group of people coming together, seeking to worship G-d how He instructs us to worship him and to live in a pleasing and Biblical way.

Handmade, from Dothan, AL.  A lovely addition to the service.

Sunday morning, July 16, Baruch spoke at a church in Augusta, GA.  We and some of our friends were so warmly welcomed there.  It was great to experience worship with these delightful people.  The Pastor and his wife were very encouraging to us.

We later me with friends of ours we’ve known for about 23 years who recently moved to Georgia.  They are helping us with the Spanish language expansion of LoveIsrael.org.  We are so thankful for their love for the L-rd and their many years of serving Him.  We had a great time with them and their family and they are very excited about this project.

Today Baruch and I met with a media consultant and worked out the logistics for a taping he will be doing tomorrow here in Atlanta.  Then we will be flying to Indianapolis, to be ready for the next speaking venues in Indiana.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TIMES FOR THE SERVICES IN INDIANA ARE BOTH 7:00PM. THE TIMES LISTED ON OUR WEBSITE ARE INCORRECT!!

I’m looking forward to sharing more with you tomorrow!
