JERUSALEM REPORT
From Mike Evans the founder of the Jerusalem Prayer Team
Dear Cheryl,
The pastor was warned to stop sharing the Gospel or else. When he went up to Jerusalem with his wife during Purim, the attack came.
The move was planned perfectly. The package was placed outside the Ortiz's front door on Purim. Purim is the annual celebration of the victory of the Jews over their enemies in ancient Persia. The Book of Esther tells the story of Haman, royal vizier to King Ahasuerus. Haman planned to kill the Jews, but his plans were foiled by Esther. Purim is celebrated by publicly reciting the Book of Esther and giving mutual gifts.
The package was decorated with candy as children are given candy and gifts to commemorate the deliverance of the Jews. Their son went to the door thinking the family had received a Purim gift, and indeed, sitting there was a Purim package any child would be happy to receive. Ami opened the package and his life was changed in an instant. Ami said, "Someone sent to our home a Purim gift with a bomb inside. When I opened it, it exploded. It was such an innocent looking package. It was not meant for my parents. My parents would not have opened a Purim package. If they wanted to hurt my parents, they would have hurt them directly. It was directed towards me."
The package exploded in Ami's hands. Pastor Ortiz explained his son's injuries: "The whole week (following the bombing) he was between life and death; lying in the hospital unconscious...having pain and burned...full of metal fragments that an evil hand had put in him. I am in pain all the time to see my perfectly strong son, with these wounds, and for nothing. He was in danger, but thank God, we received a miracle from God. He has more than 100 pieces of metal still left in his body. You can see safety pins inside him. His throat was lacerated from [side to side]...from pieces of glass from the 12 windows that were blown out. There were open wounds and he received skin grafts...two on his left leg and stomach too." The explosion severed two toes and damaged his hearing.
This shameful story is being suppressed because this horrendous act was perpetrated by Orthodox Jews who especially hate Jewish Christians. Even more shameful is the fact that several major pro-Israel groups in the U.S. have ignored the appeal for help from this family; they don't want to offend the Orthodox by helping Messianic Jews. There is only One I do not want to offend; my Lord and Savior. The cross is an offense and the Ortiz family has paid the ultimate price. We must, with our gifts and prayers today, let them know they are not alone.
I am asking every Jerusalem Prayer Team member to respond today with a generous emergency gift. Will you be a blessing today? Please send your gift to help the Jerusalem Prayer Team reach out to the children in Israel today. Every dime you give to this appeal will be used to help Jewish Christians in Israel.

"Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me." (Matthew 25:40)
Your gift to the Jerusalem Prayer Team today will help give children like Ami - kids who have been injured in these cruel attacks no matter who the perpetrators - their lives back. May the God of Abraham bless you as you bless these precious children who are his descendants!
