PRAYERS for ISRAEL |
||
|
| Thank you all for the support
and prayers – we really need it this day.
In Kiryat Tivon we are "in between the MATZAV" – meaning we can hear from time to time the missiles falling over Haifa area, and the taking off the air planes from the air force base not far away at the opposite direction. From time to time we hear the alarm, and we run to the staircase (the only place at home with no windows) and sit there for few minutes. Since our congregation is located in a bomb shelter – we were requested by the municipality to leave the place open. The atmosphere is not of fear, but more of anger and fatigue (not despair). So let us all pray for peace,
quiet and better days. ________________________________________________

He who blessed our fathers
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He will bless all the abducted soldiers {and in
their numbers Gilad son of Aviva Shalit, Ehud son of Malka Goldvaser and
Eldad son of Tova Regev} that are in captivity and in harm may God take pity
on them and take them out of slavery and lead them into freedom, and from
labor to redemption, and from darkness to grand light and strengthen their
spirit and bring them back to their families healthy and whole. Please let
it be soon, and we say Amen. ________________________________________________ |

I pray for all of the
parents who have children who fight for Israel's freedom. My daughter is
planning to return to Israel at the end of August for about a year. I pray
for her safety and for all of the young people in Israel. They are the
future of our ancestral homeland. Jews in America think constantly of
Israel, and pray for her safety and security and that of all her
inhabitants. We also pray for the safe return of the brave soldiers who have
been captured. ________________________________________________ |
|
May G-d keep you safe and
freee from harm ________________________________________________ |
|
I pray with all my heart for
the beloved people of Israel. I love Israel and everything it stands for.
Please do not let any harm come to anyone in Israel. Let peace prevail.
Shalom ________________________________________________ |

Our God, the One who raised
Joseph up from the pit, Gilead Shalit, Ehud Goldwasser, Eldad Regev Strengthen their spirit and
bring them our prayers that they be protected from all harm. ________________________________________________ |

May G-d grant you the
strength, energy, and means to protect and defend Israel. ________________________________________________ |
| We feel at one with you at
this most worrisome time and you have our support and prayers. We are
watching TV and reading accounts of the war on a constant basis. We hope
Israel is successful in this important endeavor and that the world sees the
need for you to protect yourselves so that you can live in peace as your
rightfully and lawfully should! The Marks Family ________________________________________________ |

You and yours are in our
daily prayers. May this trial resolve the Hamas and Hezbollah threats to
Israel. Rest assured that ALL Americans with whom I have spoken are behind
your efforts. Our congregation has, and will continue to support our
brethren and the State of Israel. My condolences to the families of those
killed during these campaigns. ________________________________________________ |

My thoughts and prayers are
with all of you. I stand with Israel and believe the rest of the world must
stand with us and protect and support Israel's right to be a strong and
contributing nation to a free and peaceful world. ________________________________________________ |

Our prayers and good wished
are with all of you at these difficult hours to Israel. I have a family in
Israel and lived there for 30 years and I can relate to the pain and
frustration of the current situation. May the good Lord help Tzahal in its
difficult job against all our enemies that are surrounding us in the North
and South and bring peace to Israel. ________________________________________________ |

Our hearts and thoughts are
with you always. We listen to the media and pray for your good health and
peace. ________________________________________________ |

Thank you for sending this
message. Yesterday I went to the Western Wall, placing seven prayers
for Peace to prevail on earth on one sheet of paper into the wall. I hope
that others do the same. ________________________________________________ |

My prayers go out to
everyone in Israel and especially in Northern Israel. I know the Israeli
army will be successful but hopefully soon so to limit the amount of deaths
in Israel. ________________________________________________ |

May God strenthen the hands
of those defending Israel, strenthen the hearts, resolve an courage of the
people. Comfort the mourners, pursue and eliminate the evildoers and shelter
Israel in enduring peace. ________________________________________________ |

May the band of energy that
is our love circle and protect you, keep you from harm, and may the wrong
doers bear the fruits of their actions. Peace to you, to Israel, to all
people. Keep strong and courageous. ________________________________________________ |

May G*d protect you and
bring peace... soon!! ________________________________________________ |

Our thoughts, prayers and
hopes are with you at this trying time....all Jews in New York and America
are behind you and we wish we could be there to show our unity. Keep your
chins up! This nightmare will be over soon. ________________________________________________ |

My prayers are with you now
and in the days to come. The IDF and Israel's leaders are a powerful force
and they must prevail. ________________________________________________ |

Have courage and faith,
Eretz Yisrael holds many of the keys to Jewish civilization. ________________________________________________ |

Our prayers are with
all of you. We wish only the best for you and your families at this time. ________________________________________________ |

We pray for an Israeli
successful outcome of two front war. Our sadness over the loss of lives and
damage to Israeli sites. Our commiseration for those suffering hardships and
the need to hide in Bomb Shelters. ________________________________________________ |

My heart goes out to
you all. May peace be swift. May you triumph over evil and hatred. I will
pray for your safety. May you go from strength to strength... ________________________________________________ |

We here at Temple Beth
El in Ormond Beach, Florida, want you to know that we all stand by you and
keep you in our prayers. We are rallying for support and will do what ever
we can to support you. We pray for a peaceful and quick end to this "Summer
Rain". ________________________________________________ |

As our Rabbi prayed this
Shabbat: May the Children of Isaac and the Children of Ishmael come together
to create a shelter of peace for all people. Blessed be the memory of all
innocents whose lives are extinguished by hatred. ________________________________________________ |
|
We pray for the strength to
overcome the hatred of the world and for reason and good will to allow peace
to come. ________________________________________________ |
|
My heart and soul are
focused with you in Israel as you long for and pray for peace with security.
I too am praying for this type of peace along with special prayers for those
who stand to defend Israel. May you be strong in your ability to get
through this and may you soon see the light of day with a peaceful solution!

Our thoughts are with Israel. We pray each day for suffering to end and
for peace to finally arrive. ________________________________________________ |

I send a prayer of lasting peace and tranquility in Israel and
throughout our world. After all we are all God's children, and we should
be blessed by God with Shalom. ________________________________________________ |

As Yitzhak Rabin once said "Enough of blood and tears. Enough." I pray
for peace and the day when all nations of the world realize their
responsibility to help and protect one another. Protect and be
with Israel G-d. May the day come soon for everyone to coexist in
peace. ________________________________________________ |
|
You are in our hearts, mind and in our prayers everyday. We pray to our
dear ________________________________________________ |

May G-d give strength to all those families that have lost sons or
daughters in Israel, and for the families of those fighting to protect
Israel. And bring peace to our Jewish people in Israel.

My thoughts have been with all of you over the past month. I can not
begin to imagine the fear you lived with each time the sirens went off,
and pray that all of Israel can have a promising future without the fear
of attack. Israel is a magnificent land, and may you all live in peace
and tranquility.
