When an Iranian missile struck her neighborhood in Bat Yam, 90-year-old Zelda was left shaken and alone, sitting among the rubble outside her shattered building. In her old age and with limited mobility, she had barely made it to shelter in time. The trauma left her in shock, unable to speak.

But she wasn’t alone for long.

Because of your compassion and support, Fellowship staff were able to reach Zelda with emergency aid, delivering ready-made meals and the reassurance that someone cared. Your generosity brought her comfort and dignity in a moment of fear and chaos.

Zelda’s story is just one of many. Since Thursday, June 12, The Fellowship has distributed $2.5 million in emergency aid to families whose homes were damaged or evacuated due to Iranian missile strikes. This rapid response was only possible because of your faithful support.

And your impact doesn’t stop there.

To protect vulnerable communities from the ongoing attacks, The Fellowship is deploying 60 new bomb shelters—including 10 immediate placements and 50 upgraded models with blast-resistant steel doors. These shelters are more than structures – they represent safety and hope for families living under constant threat.

Thank you for being a light in the darkness. Your partnership is a powerful reminder to God’s people that they are not forgotten. Together, we are bringing hope, healing, and lifesaving care—one person at a time.
