Together, We Can Make a Difference

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

Psalm 34:18

Dear Friends,

In the aftermath of the devastating attacks on 7th October and the ensuing war, many families have been shattered, leaving behind widows who are grappling with unimaginable loss and trauma. At Vision for Israel, we are committed to supporting these brave women as they navigate the path of grief and healing.

We are excited to announce a new project specifically designed to bring comfort and hope to terror survivor widows. This initiative will host a series of therapeutic workshops aimed at providing a safe space for these women to heal and connect with others who share their pain.

Our pilot event will take place at the Millennium Centre and will include 30 women who have lost their husbands in these horrific events. Each workshop will offer a half-day of creative activities, a relaxing brunch, and a thoughtful gift to remind these women that they are not alone and that there is a community that cares deeply about their well-being.

Hadas was widowed on 7 October and her story is one of courage and survival. On that fateful day, terrorists stormed her home, forcing her and her husband out at gunpoint. Tragically, Hadas witnessed the murder of her beloved husband. Left with this harrowing memory, she now faces the daunting task of rebuilding her life without him. Our workshop aims to provide widows like Hadas with a few hours of peace and comfort, helping them to find strength amidst sorrow.

Another widow, Yasmin, experienced a similar ordeal as she witnessed in terror her partner held at gunpoint, was separated from him, and later he was found dead. The emotional scars are deep, but with your support, we can offer Yasmin a place where she can begin to heal and find solace among others who understand her pain.

Our goal is to ensure that these workshops become a regular occurrence, each time welcoming a new group of women who are in desperate need of support and healing. We believe that by providing these therapeutic experiences, we can help these widows find hope and begin to rebuild their lives.

But we cannot do this alone. We need your help to make this vision a reality. Your generous donations will enable us to continue offering these vital workshops and extend our support to more women who are suffering. Together, we can be a beacon of hope and love in their darkest hours.

Please consider donating today to support this crucial initiative HERE. Your contribution will make a profound difference in the lives of these widows, offering them a chance to heal and find a new purpose.

Thank you for your unwavering support and for standing with us as we bring comfort to those in need. May the Lord bless you for your kindness and generosity.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”

Psalm 147:3

Shalom and blessings,
Barry & Batya
