People most often think about Heaven when a loved one passes or perhaps when attending a funeral.  As they contemplate what comes next, many are influenced by Hollywood or a book or perhaps someone’s account of a near-death experience.  But God’s Word reveals an amazing ‘journey’ for believers from physical death through to, “new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.” (2 Pe 3:13)

As the children of Israel struggled in the 1930’s in the face of violent hatred, so The Friends of Israel was birthed in response to provide solidarity and relief. 85 years on and the struggle continues for the “apple of God’s eye”. Whether it is the deep rooted divisions within, or dissenters & destroyers on every side, Israel still has a challenging journey ahead before her deliverance will finally come.
