Delivering handwritten cards of solidarity and encouragement to Israelis from Christians in the U.S.

Since the Hamas attacks on October 7th, 2023, many Israelis feel alone - Like the world is against them.

The world is becoming increasingly hostile towards Israel, profoundly impacting the Jewish community around the globe.

After the war first began, we asked our network for cards for the local Atlanta Jewish community - an initiative we called, "Dear Jewish Friend." The response from Christians was overwhelming. We received over 500 cards and letters of encouragement for the Jewish community in Atlanta.

Last summer, we brought over 250 cards of love and support to displaced Israeli families who lost their homes - and some, their loved ones - as a result of the war. It was a beautiful and well-received gesture.

This Summer, our team will be in Israel touring and talking to many Israelis.

We want to let them know that we love and stand with them. It means so much to Israelis when their Christian friends reach out to them with love and support. 

Can you help us?

If you love Israel and the Jewish community, please add your voice to ours!

Write a card or letter of encouragement to an Israeli, and we will deliver it!

Here are the details…

  • Address it to: "Dear Israeli Friend…"

    The cards will be given out randomly as we meet people during our travels.

  • Let them know that you are a Christian and that you love Israel and the Jewish people. You can choose to sign your name or "a Christian friend."

    Tell them that you are praying for them and that you care. Feel free to include drawings, painting...be creative if you'd like!

    Please write legibly in PRINT and not in cursive. 

  • Please do not use New Testament references, "Christianese" terms, or evangelical language of any kind. No crosses or Christian symbols. Old Testament verses are fine.

    Please do not write in cursive - it is very difficult to read for non-native English speakers.

  • The sooner, the better! The deadline to receive cards by mail is May 5th.

  • Please send the cards to our P.O. Box at the address below, or email us to connect in person if necessary.

  • YES, absolutely! Kids’ cards are often the most heartwarming! This makes a great project for youth groups, Christian school classes, homeschoolers, etc.

We also plan to distribute financial aid as we see needs. If you would like to make a gift in support of this project, that would be a blessing!
