AN UPDATE FROM CANADA BY HANNAH FROM "VOICE FOR ISRAEL".

Let us continue in prayer for Israel particularly remembering our brothers and sisters in the Messianic communities throughout the Land.


Shalom Chaverim (friends),

Shalom from Canada,

Wanted to let you know that we made it to Canada safe and sound but were shocked to find out that the next day, a missile struck our moshav (village), Ramat Raziel - on the very street where my daughter Courtney and her family live!

I spoke with Courtney by phone the next morning and she sounded shaken but ok.  The air raid siren went off around 10:30 Tuesday evening.  Emanuel grabbed the kids and they ran for the bomb shelter, reaching it just in time to hear what Courtney said was a blast so loud she thought the whole house was exploding!

In fact, it was the terrible sound of all the huge picture window in their upstairs living room shattering into a million pieces from the force of the blast.

Incredibly, the 2 foot long missile hit about 4 houses down from Courtney's, but miraculously missed every house and landed in a garden between the houses.  It left a huge hole in the ground and shattered glass everywhere but other than that there was no real damage or injuries. Praise Adonai!

The emergency crews that came afterwards said they had never seen anything like it before - how the missile missed every house and landed in such a narrow gap between them.  It's as if an unseen hand guided a thread through a needle.  They actually said, "someone must be praying on this moshav."

Courtney told me later that when she walked my dog, Pepper in the morning before the attack, she felt led to pray for the safety of their neighbors and God's protection over the moshav.

I thank and praise Adonai for keeping Courtney and her family as well as our friends and neighbors in Ramat Raziel safe.  May He continue to keep Israel under the shelter of His wings.

Love (Ahava) & Shalom,
 
Hannah & family
