22 sisters and a few brothers gathered to pray for the current situation in the land.

Rania opened in prayer with thanksgiving to God for this heart of unity. She asked that the prayers would be like fiery arrows of love that will quench war and hatred. Missiles of God’s love and glory are being released all over the land and into Gaza and the West Bank. We want to experience a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit over our land. The meeting was one of renewed love and covenant commitment to one another as the Jewish and Arab mothers gathered like Ruth and Naomi.

One of the many special moments was when a Jewish mother sang Boaz’s words to Ruth over the Arab women, “May the LORD repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.” Ruth 2:12

An Arab mother responded with Ruth’s words to Naomi, “Where you go I will go, and where you lodge I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God.” Ruth 1:16
