Faith Expressed Through Action in 2025

During Bridges for Peace’s annual year-end function, I described our volunteers and staff as some of the finest people in the world. Through two consecutive years of war, they have been a light in the darkness, showing God’s love in action, strengthening Israel and transforming Jewish–Christian relations. Every volunteer, staff member and national team has become a living ambassador to Israel and the Jewish people.some of the finest people in the world.

This year tested Israel like never before. And Bridges for Peace was there every step of the way. We could not have done it alone. International Christians like you—faithful donors, prayer warriors and supporters—stood with us. Your prayers sustained volunteers, while your generosity ensured not one aid package was missed. Through your faithfulness, we were able to walk out love in action in the darkest hours. Every act of aid, comforting hand, emergency vehicle and care package carried your heart of love to Israel.

 

In 2025, Bridges for Peace grew in reputation as the Christian partner Israel could rely on, a friend that sticks closer than a brother (Prov. 18:24). From comforting survivors hours after missile strikes, to sponsoring a flight for French Jews making aliyah, to dedicating memorials and supporting rescue units across Israel and the world, we demonstrated steadfast faithfulness. We gave comfort, hope and practical support when it was needed most, proving that love without action is incomplete.

 

As international CEO, I traveled the world alongside our national directors, speaking in churches, synagogues, Jewish community centers, private homes, embassies, the White House and the US Capitol. From the USA to the UK, France, Australia, New Zealand, Spain and South Korea, our message was clear: the moral crisis facing Western civilization, the rise of antisemitism and the urgent call to stand with Israel demand faith and action. We met with presidents, royalty, ambassadors and parliamentarians who share our commitment to biblical truth, demonstrating that evil will never have the final word.

 

Bridges for Peace’s impact in 2025 is reflected in every corner of Israel and beyond. We donated bomb shelters, revitalized communities, blessed 5,500 orphans, strengthened  Israel’s leading organization for children with special needs and equipped search-and-rescue teams in Israel and abroad. Through these actions, Israel experienced love in motion, the tangible proof that the global Christian family stands with her.

 

At our year-end celebration, I reminded our extraordinary volunteers and staff that none of this could have been achieved without God igniting hearts worldwide. The light of Jesus (Yeshua) shone through your prayers, gifts and unwavering support. Bridges for Peace was Israel’s faithful friend, a visible demonstration of God’s love and faithfulness. Israel is not alone because her Father in heaven is faithful to His covenant, and because you, God’s faithful servants, are walking with her every step of the way.

 

Shalom,
