I was honored to have recently been invited to write a guest post for the blog Eved of HaShem. My post was entitled Restoring the Tents of Jacob, and I invite my readers to check it out. It is not typical of my writing, but it is a brief account of our recent trip to Israel and our time with Tents of Mercy.
Eved of HaShem (“Servant of The Name” or “Servant of God”) is the blog of Gil Burgos, a Sephardi Jew who believes that Yeshua is the Messiah. Gil is the founder of LOJF (The Lion of Judah Fellowship) in New York City. The Lion of Judah Fellowship is a Messianic Jewish organization. Please pray for the work Gil and the LOJF members are doing in New York.
I believe that I will be writing for Eved of HaShem on a regular basis. I will keep you informed as those writings are published. However, I would encourage you to support Eved of HaShem and LOJF in any way possible.

Peter,
Have you met Ron Cantor?

I have not. I have heard of him, but I have not met him. My connection with the Messianic Jewish movement is relatively minor and through the church we attended, Beltway Park (Abilene, TX) which is a big supporter of Tents of Mercy, and Beltway was connected to Tents of Mercy through Don Finto and Belmont Church in Nashville who was partnered with Eitan Shishkoff @ Tents of Mercy.

Ron actually came to our old church about 2 years ago and spent the weekend with my boss where I work at.
I don’t know if you have heard of the “Daughters of Zion” from NC, but, they too have a Messianic ministry. They do a lot of “Dance” and teachigs on that type of worship with flags, etc…
Be Blessed my new found Brother.
Love in Christ Jesus
Jake

No, I have not heard of the “Daughters of Zion”, but we did spend some time with Messianic believers in Israel, and their praise, worship and dancing was amazing. They put stuffy old American churches to shame, it helps one to appreciate what King David must have felt…
