Supplemental to brochure info:
- Saturday, Shabbat, Aug. 26, we will be attending worship services and an Israeli Messianic Jewish congregation, not as yet specified. Experience what G-d by His Spirit is doing NOW in the Land and people, in addition to experiencing the ancient heritage.
- Sunday in Jericho will include a visit to the Seeds of Hope ministry among Palestinian Muslim Arabs, founded by Taysir Abu Saada. Taysir is the author of Once and Arafat Man, and was a marksman for the PLO. Amazing salvation story. Lunch at the affiliated Green Valley restaurant
- Wednesday Aug. 30 will be an amazing trip with archeology teacher Aaron Lipkin to Joshua’s Altar, the somewhat recently discovered site of the events of Joshua 8.30-33. This is apparently one of the MOST authentic sites of Biblical history in the land. We will have an armored bus and IDF [Israeli Army] approval.

חנוכה Hanukkah Party Sunday afternoon, December 18th.
Hanukkah חנוכה means Dedication, and is the celebration of the Macabbee victory over Greek-Syrian genocide and assimilation, in ancient times, against all odds. This year we will feature a Corrie ten Boom re-enactor. The original Corrie ten Boom was a Dutch woman who saved Jewish people during WW II, against all odds.
The celebration will begin at 1:30 pm with shopping, and schmoozing. Then there will be craft activities for children, a heart warming presentation, and yummy shared latkes & finger foods.

About Or HaOlam
Or HaOlam teaches Jewish life in the Messiah of Israel. We are part of a world-wide movement of Jewish Congregations and people of all ethnic groups who follow Yeshua (Jesus) in the context of Jewish lifestyle and identity. We meet weekly every Saturday morning at 10 am.
The Vision of Or HaOlam:
Working to bring Jewish people, and those grafted in, to their covenantal identity in Messiah. Implies: 1.) Salvation through the Atonement of the Messiah; personal faith in the atoning death and resurrection of Yeshua; it's all about the King 2.) Covenantal identity of Jewish people, not replacement 3.) Restoration to Torah lifestyle 4.) Restoration/survival of the nation of Israel. (Covenantal identity, so Jewish believers don't assimilate. Romans 11:15 "For if their casting Yeshua aside means reconciliation for the world, what will their accepting him mean? It will be life from the dead!)
