Here is a calendar of upcoming events, up and down the country. Some are organized by us, others by like-minded organizations and groups.

He will be sharing insights into the deep current issues in the Middle East, the re-gathering of the exiles of Israel, the spiritual battle entailed, and the importance of intercessory prayer.

The Bibas Family, in happier times
The DCM at the Embassy, Yael Holan has asked if we would like to “adopt” a family of hostages to raise awareness of their plight.
They are the Bibas family.
Kfir, Ariel and Shiri Bibas, and presumably their father Yarden were all kidnapped from Nir Oz, an Israeli kibbutz that was devastated when it came under attack by Hamas militants on October 7. The attackers murdered more than a quarter of the community and seized scores of others, as they fired at people’s homes, looted and destroyed what they could.
The armed wing of Hamas has claimed, without providing evidence, that Kfir, his 4-year-old brother, Ariel, and their mother, Shiri, were killed in an Israeli airstrike. The armed wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, said they had been killed in earlier Israeli bombing.
Kfir was nine months old when he was abducted, he will turn one on January 18.
We are proposing to hold a special meeting for them on Thursday, January 18.
Hao Room, Halswell Centre, 341 Halswell Rd, Christchurch.
