Olim Fund of the Galilee
June 2004 Report

June 2004

Shalom Dear Ones,

This has been another record month for our Olim Fund as showers of new blessings are enabling us to reach out more and more to address the ever growing survival level needs of our returning Jewish immigrants to the Land of their inheritance.

I am delighted to say that as our donation base continues to grow, our new DVD teaching on the Jewish Roots of Christianity has begun to bring a new source of funding that we anticipate will provide much fruit.  The profit from book sales has also increased markedly as many newly informed believers seek information about the Jewish roots of their faith.

Thank you all so much for your faithfulness that has allowed us to reach twenty families with your loving outreach. You can rest assured that every penny of the money you have contributed has been distributed to these families as our vey small overhead is provided by sources external to the Fund’s donation base.

During my recently completed speaking tour I was greatly uplifted by the loving response I consistently received from our brothers and sisters in Yeshua wherever we met. I wish there was a way I could personally reach out right now to give each of you a warm and loving hug of thanksgiving.

Suffice it to say for now, that each of you is very much loved and very much appreciated.

In the love and keeping of our precious Lord, your brother in Him,

Bob Fischer
