OOR Ministry NEWSLETTER - JULY 2026
Hope is Rising from Israel
When many around the world know Israel only through headlines of war, conflict and uncertainty, we have the privilege of witnessing another story, one that God is faithfully writing every day.
We continue to see hearts healed, lives transformed and walls of division broken down through the love of Jesus Christ.
This is the vision of OOR Ministry: to exalt the name of Jesus, strengthen the Body of Christ, and be a living testimony that the Gospel continues to unite Jews and Arabs at the foot of the Cross.
Thank you for standing with us. Every prayer, every word of encouragement and every support makes these stories possible.

"Valuable & Influential" - A Special Evening for Women
After many months of war and ongoing uncertainty, we hosted a special event for women, called "Valuable & Influential".
Led by Rana, the event attended by nearly 70 Arab women from across Israel for an evening of worship, creativity, fellowship, a shared meal and an encouraging message from God's Word. It was a space where women could pause, breathe and encounter God’s love once again.
One testimony deeply touched our hearts: A woman shared that during the months of war she had become emotionally and spiritually exhausted. She found herself questioning her faith and struggling to hold on to hope. That evening, the Lord met her in a powerful way, reminding her that she is His beloved daughter. She left renewed, strengthened and filled with fresh courage to continue following Him.
Moments like these remind us that people don't simply need more information, they need a genuine encounter with Jesus.
COME & WORSHIP TOGETHER Event Unity That Glorifies Jesus
This was the second year we hosted COME & WORSHIP TOGETHER worship event.
More than 300 believers, Jews, Arabs and followers of Jesus from different backgrounds, gathered to worship Him together.
We were honored to welcome Joshua Aaron, Shilo Ben Hod and other musicians.
At the beginning of the evening, Nizar invited everyone to stand, greet one another, and share an embrace. As the worship team began singing the words, "Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell together in unity", the atmosphere changed.
The presence of God filled the room, and many were moved to tears.
One Arabic-speaking couple shared that it was the first time in their lives they had worshiped alongside Jewish believers.
Singing together in Hebrew, Arabic and English completely changed how they viewed their Jewish brothers and sisters in the Body of Christ.
Another powerful testimony came from an elderly Jewish woman. Since the events of October 7, she had found it difficult even to hear the Arabic language or be near Arab people. During the evening, the Lord began healing her heart. She shared that He reminded her the true battle is not between peoples, but against the enemy who seeks to sow hatred and division. Jesus alone brings forgiveness, reconciliation and peace.
Watching that healing unfold before our eyes was one of the most powerful moments of the evening.
We believe unity is far more than a beautiful idea, it is living evidence of the transforming power of the Gospel and the fulfillment of Jesus' prayer:
"That they all may be one." John 17
Hope from Israel to Finland
God continues opening doors for this message of reconciliation to reach far beyond Israel.
Recently, we had the privilege of ministering at a large conference in Finland attended by approximately 25,000 people.
At a time when the world often sees Israel only through the lens of war and conflict, we were able to share a different story, the story of what Jesus is doing today.
Together with Messianic worship leader Shiri Regev, Nizar led worship in Hebrew, Arabic, English and even Finnish. The message was simple yet powerful: Jesus continues bringing together people from different languages, cultures and backgrounds, offering hope where the world sees only division.
At the conclusion of the conference, the conference director shared in a personal letter that, in his opinion, this was one of the most impactful and successful conferences held in the past twenty years.
All glory belongs to the Lord alone.
A New Song Reaching the Nations
We recently released our newest worship production, Shout to the Lord.
We continue to receive messages from people around the world asking about our faith, about the unity they witness between Jews and Arabs, and about the hope they experience through the music.
Our answer is always the same: none of this would be possible apart from what Jesus accomplished on the cross.
As Scripture says: "For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation." (Ephesians 2:14)
We are simply privileged to witness what He has already done.
