Night of Hope

“Comfort, comfort my people,” says your God.

A National Night of Prayer and Solidarity with Israel and the Jewish People

"NEVER AGAIN" BEGINS WITH REMEMBRANCE

On October 7, 2023, the world witnessed an unspeakable tragedy as Hamas terrorists brutally attacked innocent Israelis during what should have been a day of celebration and worship. That Shabbat morning—during the joyful holiday of Simchat Torah—became a day that will live in infamy as over 1,200 precious lives were stolen and hundreds taken hostage.

But darkness does not have the final word.

THE CALL

Christians across America are uniting for one powerful night—a Night of Hope that will illuminate the darkness with prayer, solidarity, and unwavering support for Israel and the Jewish people. This is more than an event; it's a movement of believers standing in the gap, declaring that we will not be silent while our Jewish brothers and sisters face unprecedented challenges.

THE VISION

Picture this: Across more than 20 states, in churches, community centers, and gathering places, Christians will simultaneously lift their voices in prayer for Israel. From coast to coast, we will create a symphony of intercession that rises to heaven on behalf of:

🇮🇱 THE ISRAEL DEFENSE FORCES & GOVERNMENT
Praying for wisdom, protection, and divine strategy for those defending the nation

💔 BEREAVED FAMILIES
Interceding for comfort and healing for those who lost loved ones

🔗 THE HOSTAGES

PASSING THE TORCH

For over four decades, Bridges for Peace has stood as a faithful bridge between Christians and the Jewish people. But as we look toward the future, we recognize that the baton must be passed to the next generation.

Young Christians today face unprecedented challenges as they witness rising antisemitism on college campuses and in their communities. They need to understand their biblical mandate to stand with Israel as a spiritual calling rooted in God's covenant promises.

Night of Hope is more than prayer; it's generational transfer. We are equipping the next generation to:

• Understand their biblical responsibility to bless Israel
• Recognize and combat antisemitism wherever they encounter it
• Carry forward the legacy of Christian-Jewish solidarity
• Become lifelong supporters of Israel and the Jewish people

When young believers witness thousands of Christians united in prayer for Israel, they catch a vision that will shape their worldview for decades to come. This is how movements are sustained—by igniting passion in the hearts of the next generation.
