Shalom kallisarvoiset ystävät ja yhteistyökumppanit!
Varhain viime lauantaina kännykkäni alkoi piipata. Tiesin välittömästi mistä kyse. Meridel ja minä aloimme rukoilla ja esirukoilla.
Kännykässäni on sovellus nimeltä "Red Alert" eli punainen, siis kiireellinen ja tärkeä hälytys. Se hälyttää aina, kun Israeliin osuu raketteja. Hätäpiippauksia tuli yksi toisensa jälkeen lähes tauotta. Maan eteläosaan osui satamäärin hengenvaarallisia, räjähteillä lastattuja raketteja Gazasta. Kännykkäni pärisi hätäpiippauksia tuntikausia.
Tähän aamuun mennessä, toukokuun 6. päivään, yhteensä 700 rakettia on iskeytynyt asutusalueille Askeloniin, Asdodiin, Siderotiin, Beersebaan ja moniin muihin asutuskeskuksiin. Vain 12 km meistä etelään, Beit Shemeshiin osui niinikään. Hävitys, tuho on rikollismaista. Israelilaisista 150 on haavoittunut, osa hengenvaarallisesti, ja 4 henkilöä on kuollut. Pommisuojista turvaa etsineistä ihmisistä 1,5 miljoonaa on traumatisoitunut vakavasti.
Israelin hävittäjät vastasivat ja tuhosivat Hamasin rakettien ampumatukikohtia. Siinä yhteydessä kuoli 23 terroristia ja toimijaa. Surullista kyllä, sivuvaikutuksena vahinkoa koitui muillekin ihmisille, sillä terroristit piileskelevät palestiinalaisten ja heidän kotiensa, sairaaloidensa, lastentarhojensa ja koulujensa suojissa. He toimivat tällä tavalla, jotta uutisissa Israel esitetään julmana hyökkääjänä. Päinvastainen on totta.
Rukoilettehan kanssamme, että tämä hulluus loppuu ja Gazan tilanteeseen saadaan pysyvä ratkaisu. Useimmat palestinalaiskansalaiset haluavat sieltä pois. Vaan heitä heidän omat Hamas-johtajansa pitävätä siellä (pantti)vankeina. Samaan aikaan Israel toimittaa heille sähköä, vettä, polttoainetta, ruokaa ja lääkkeitä, siis Israelin vannoutuneille vihollisille. Maailman lehdistö ei koskaan raportoi näistä tosiasioista.
Jumalan sana on ainut lohtumme.
"Te saatte kuulla sodan ääniä ja sanomia sodista, mutta älkää pelästykö. Näin täytyy tapahtua, mutta se ei vielä ole loppu." Matteus 24:6
"Mene, kansani, kammioihisi ja sulje ovet jälkeesi. Pysy piilossa hetken aikaa, kunnes viha on mennyt ohi," Jesaja 26:20
"Armahda minua, Jumala, armahda minua, sillä sinuun sieluni turvautuu. Minä turvaudun sinun siipiesi suojaan, kunnes onnettomuudet ovat menneet ohi." Psalmi 57:2
"Jumala on meidän turvamme ja väkevyytemme, varma apumme hädän hetkellä." Psalmi 46:2"Ei hän pelkää pahaa sanomaa. Hänen sydämensä on vahva, hän turvaa Herraan." Psalmi 112: 7"… ja teidän elämänne on Kristuksen kanssa kätkettynä Jumalassa." Kirje kolossalaisille 3:3"Tämän olen puhunut teille, että teillä olisi minussa rauha. Maailmassa teillä on ahdistus, mutta olkaa rohkeat: minä olen voittanut maailman."
Johannes 16:33
Kiitos rukouksista nuorimman poikamme Danielin puolesta. Kymmenen päivää sitten hän joutui äkisti puhevaikeuksien vuoksi sairaalaan; samaan paikkaan, missä minulle suoritettiin avosydänleikkaus. Sairaalassa hänelle tehtiin useita kokeita, mm. tietokonetomografia ja magneettikuvaus sekä otettiin selkäydinneste- ja verikokeita. Hänellä arveltiin olevan tulehdus
aivoissa. Syytä ei tiedetä. Nyt Daniel on kotona saamassa tulehdusestolääkitystä ja rukousta. Näemme paranemisen edistyvän joka päivä, mutta hän joutuu vielä sairaalaan kuukauden kuluttua toiseen magneettikuvaukseen ja Israelin taitavimpiin kuuluvan neurologin vastaanotolle.
Kiitos rukouksista. Me olemme edustajanne tässä maassa ja pyydämme apua kanssaihmisiltä tällaisella hetkellä.
Israel Vision Newsletter – May 2019
Written by Dr. Jay Rawlings
Shalom Dear Friends and Partners,
Early last Saturday morning my phone started beeping. I instantly knew what it was. Meridel and I started to pray and intercede.
I have an App on my phone called "Red Alert" and it sounds an alarm whenever Israel is being hit by rockets. It kept ringing and hardly stopped. Continuously the southern part of the nation was hit by hundreds and hundreds of deadly explosive-laden missiles from Gaza. My phone alarm sounded for hours.
This morning , May 6th, the current total is 700 rockets that struck the population areas of Ashkelon, Ashdod, Sderot, Beer Sheva, and many other population centers even reaching to Beit Shemesh just 12 km south of us. The destruction and carnage is criminal. There have been 150 Israeli citizens injured, some critically while leaving 4 dead and 1.5 million people severely traumatized seeking refuge in their bomb shelters.
Israeli jets responded taking out scores of Hamas rocket launch sites killing 23 terrorists and operatives. Sadly some collateral damage occurred because the terrorists hide right in the middle of Palestinian, homes, hospitals, kindergartens and schools. They do this on purpose so that the news portrays the Israelis as the cruel aggressors. The opposite is true.
Please join us in prayer for this madness to stop and that a permanent solution will be found in Gaza. Most of the Palestinian citizens there want out. However, they are held as captives by their own Hamas leaders. Meanwhile Israel supplies, electricity, water, fuel, food and medicines to them, Israel's sworn enemies. The world press never reports these facts.
The Word of God is our only comfort.
You will hear of wars and rumours of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Matthew 24:6
Go, my people, enter your rooms (shelters) and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. Isaiah 26:20,21
Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me, for in you I take refuge.
I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed. Psalm 57:1
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1
They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord. Psalm 112:7Your life is hidden with the Messiah in God. Colossians 3:3
'I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.' John 16:33
Thank you for praying for our youngest son Daniel. Ten days ago he was suddenly admitted with speech difficulties, to the hospital where I had my open heart surgery, They gave him many tests including one CT scan and 2 MRI's as well as a spinal fluid tap and blood tests. They decided that he had an inflammation of the brain. The cause was unknown. He is now home on anti-inflammatory medicine and prayer. We see an improvement every day. But he must go back to the hospital in one month for another MRI exam and a consultation with one of the leading neurologists in Israel. Thank you for your prayers.
We are your feet on the ground here, reaching out to our fellow citizens at such a time as this.

Jay's Monthly Thank you letter for March 2019
Dear and Precious Friends and Partners,
As I was praying about writing this letter to you this month, I felt the "Still Small Voice" say to me, "Tell them about your early days in Israel." I wasn't sure how far to go back, but then this verse came to me in my Bible reading,
And now, friends, we ask you to honor those leaders who work so hard for you, who have been given the responsibility of urging and guiding you along in your obedience. Overwhelm them with appreciation and love!
1 Thessalonians 5:12 MSG
That's it! I want to overwhelm you with appreciation and love – today. I want to honor, many of you leaders, pastors and evangelists, both men and women around the world, who have worked so hard and given so royally to help Meridel and myself and our team to educate a large worldwide audience about God's faithfulness to His Word and keeping power concerning His covenants to Israel.
When we came to Israel as a family in 1969, we had no idea what we were going to do. All we knew was that our marching orders, way back 50 years ago, were twofold, First, Meridel heard the Lord say to her, "If you love me? Then love My people.
Secondly, the Lord gave me a scripture from Jeremiah 50:2a which says, in the MSG Bible,
"Get the word out to the nations! Preach it! Go public with this, broadcast it far and wide:
Back then, five decades ago, we were a young married couple with one son, David, nine months old. We had no clue how to be obedient to and to fulfill these clear and quite simple instructions. We felt like Meridel's pioneering forefathers when they came to Canada from Switzerland, England, and Ireland in the 1800s. Likewise, my grandparents came to Canada in the early 1900s, very poor, uneducated, with a few clothes on their backs. They arrived from England, Scotland, and France. They too were pioneers!
Like countless thousands and thousands of thousands, they faced the cold, foreboding Canadian winters. A vast uninhabited wilderness lay before them. This scenario of settlers seeking a better life also happened in America, Australia, South Africa, and South America to name a few places.
We too felt like we were pioneers in Israel. We discovered, that our first task was to pray! Then to listen for His instructions and act upon them in obedience.
In 1969, Israel was a lot different than it is today. Following Israel's miraculous victory in the 1967 Six Day War, there was a sense of euphoria in the nation. But this, however, would be short-lived, as by 1973 the Yom Kippur War, severely hurt Israel. In the beginning, Syrian and Egyptian tanks devastated the IDF or Israel Defence Forces in the Sinai and on the Golan Heights. Initially, this war, which the Arabs started on the Holiest Day of the Jewish year, caused huge losses in personnel and equipment. It was also a case of nuclear brinkmanship between the USA and the USSR. The current situation today is quite similar in that Syria involves Russia, Iran, Turkey against Israel and the USA.
Back then in the late 1970s, our first prayer meetings were held out in the woods where we could sing and praise God without calling attention to ourselves. Month by month a small group of us would turn up for these meetings. Our children played around us as we interceded and petitioned Heaven's Gate.
At that time, I would estimate that there were about 25 to 50 Jewish believers in Yeshua in all of Israel. Slowly the numbers began to increase. The relations between the Arab believers and Jewish believers in Yeshua began to blossom. Miracles started to happen in spite of strong persecution by the ultra-Orthodox religious Jews. Thank God for the bravery, grit, and perseverance of the early believers, Arab and Jew, and internationals alike.
Today, there are about 20 to 25,000 Messianic believers and an equal number of Evangelical Arabs. This coupled with many vibrant congregations, Bible Schools, Pro-Life works, prayer groups plus services to the poorest of the poor in Israel today, represent His hands at work. Over the years I have made several promotional documentaries on the vibrancy of the Gospel work going on in Israel today. Thank God for these miracles.
In obedience to the Lord, we continue to send our regular TV and Internet reports on interesting prophetic subjects happening in Israel today. We have also started a pioneering work in Greece. In fact, our son Josh and I are there as I write this letter to you. Again it is pondering work for the Lord.
( I now know what the Apostle Paul must have felt like when writing in this part of the world, it's a bit lonely)
We send our love and appreciation to you for your support to our ongoing, "pioneering works for the Lord." May you be overwhelmed with love and appreciation, – TODAY
Jay, Meridel, sons, and team.

Israel Vision – Middle East Update
Ori Ansbacher, aged 19, was a gentle Jewish soul who volunteered with disadvantaged kids of all faiths. On Feb. 7th, 2019, while walking alone in the forest near Jerusalem, she was raped, stabbed multiple times and decapitated.
Arafat Irfayia: Ori's murderer, a proud Palestinian from Hebron smirks, "I wanted to return to an Israeli jail. "Now officially a Hero of the Resistance, according to the Palestinian Authority, he will receive $3,700 US. salary monthly for life (paid by UK & EU taxpayers). He will likely spend at most 10 years in a comfortable Israeli jail and will also enjoy the honor of having schools and roads named after him.
Here in Israel, we feel that justice has been turned upon its head. This despicable murderer is no doubt the victim of the P.A.'s educational system of hatred of Israel; brainwashing their children and youth to believe the highest honor is to murder an Israeli.
Former Israeli PM Ehud Barak, since the Oslo Accords in 1982 was 'Inspector' on behalf of Israel for anti-semitic and anti-Israel rhetoric perpetrated in Palestinian school books. Recently he confessed to never having looked between the covers of their school books. My question is, AT WHAT PRICE? We have a generation of adult Palestinians who believe the highest good is to murder Israelis. It was Plato who said:
"The most important quest in life is who gets to teach the children and what they teach them?" How true. "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6
Iran is on the move, celebrating 40 years as the Islamic Republic. They boast of their strong presence in Lebanon and Turkey to fight the terrorism of Israel. They work to assure the world that they have never attacked any nation.FACT: Iran installed enough long-range missiles in Lebanon to attack Israel day and night for three weeks non-stop. One must use critical thinking in reading any 'so-called' news.
Alan Dershowitz addresses the worldwide surge of anti-Semitism
Photo: Eutoday.net news
– Why are so many grandchildren of Nazis and Nazi collaborators who brought us the Holocaust once again declaring war on the Jews?
– Why have we seen such an increase in anti-Semitism and irrationally virulent anti-Zionism in Western Europe?
To answer these questions, a myth must first be exposed. That myth is the one perpetrated by the French, Dutch, Norwegians, Swiss, Belgians, Austrians, and many other western Europeans: namely that the Holocaust was solely the work of German Nazis aided perhaps by some Polish, Ukrainian, Latvian, Lithuanian, and Estonian collaborators. False.
The Holocaust was perpetrated by Europeans: by Nazi sympathizers and collaborators among the French, Dutch, Norwegians, Swiss, Belgians, Austrians and other Europeans, both Western and Eastern.
If the French government had not deported more Jews than their German occupiers asked for, to the death; if so many Dutch and Belgian citizens and government officials had not cooperated in the roundup of Jews; if so many Norwegians had not supported Quisling; if Swiss government officials and bankers had not exploited Jews; if Austria had not been more Nazi than the Nazis, the Holocaust would not have had so many Jewish victims.
In light of the widespread European complicity in the destruction of European Jewry, the pervasive anti- Semitism and irrationally hateful anti-Zionism that has recently surfaced throughout Western Europe toward Israel should surprise no one. "Oh no," we hear from European apologists. "This is different. We don't hate the Jews. We only hate their nation-state. Moreover, the Nazis were right-wing. We are left-wing, so we can't be anti-Semites."Nonsense. The hard left has a history of anti-Semitism as deep and enduring as the hard right. The line from Voltaire to Karl Marx, to Lavrenti Beria, to Robert Faurisson, to today's hard-left Israel bashers is as straight as the line from Wilhelm Mars to the persecutors of Alfred Dreyfus to Hitler.
The Jews of Europe have always been crushed between the Black and the Red – victims of extremism whether it be the ultra-nationalism of Khmelnitsky to the ultra-anti-Semitism of Stalin. "But some of the most strident anti-Zionists are Jews, such as Norman Finkelstein and even Israelis such as Gilad Atzmon. Surely they can't be anti-Semites?" Why not? Gertrude Stein and Alice Toklas collaborated with the Gestapo. Atzmon, a hard leftist, describes himself as a proud self-hating Jew and admits that his ideas derive from a notorious anti-Semite. He denies that the Holocaust is historically proved but he believes that Jews may well have killed Christian children to use their blood to bake Passover matzah. And he thinks it's "rational" to burn down synagogues. Finkelstein believes in an international Jewish conspiracy that includes Steven Spielberg, Leon Uris, Eli Wiesel, and Andrew Lloyd Webber!
"But Israel is doing bad things to the Palestinians," the European apologists insist, "and we are sensitive to the plight of the underdog."
No, you're not! Where are your demonstrations on behalf of the oppressed Tibetans, Georgians, Syrians, Armenians, Kurds, or even Ukrainians? Where are your BDS movements against the Chinese, the Russians, the Cubans, the Turks, or the Assad regime? Only the Palestinians, only Israel? Why? Not because the Palestinians are more oppressed than these and other groups. Only because their alleged oppressors are Jews and the nation-state of the Jews. Would there be demonstrations and BDS campaigns on behalf of the Palestinians if they were oppressed by Jordan or Egypt? Oh, wait! The Palestinians were oppressed by Egypt and Jordan… The West Bank and Gaza were an open-air prison between 1948 and 1967 when Egypt and Jordan were the occupying powers. And remember Black September, when Jordan killed more Palestinians than Israel did in a century? (3,000) I don't remember any demonstration or BDS campaigns — because there weren't any."
When Arabs occupy or kill Arabs, Europeans go ho-hum. But when Israel opens a soda factory in Maale Adumim, which even the Palestinian leadership acknowledges will remain part of Israel in any peace deal, Oxfam parts ways with Scarlett Johansson for advertising a soda company that employs hundreds of Palestinians. Keep in mind that Oxfam has provided "aid and material support" to two anti-Israel terrorist groups, according to the Tel Aviv-based Israeli Law Group.
The hypocrisy of so many hard-left western Europeans would be staggering if it were not so predictable based on the sordid history of Western Europe's treatment of the Jews. Even England, which was on the right side of the war against Nazism, has a long history of anti-Semitism, beginning with the expulsion of the Jews in 1290 to the notorious White Paper of 1939, which prevented the Jews of Europe from seeking asylum from the Nazis in British-mandated Palestine… And Ireland, which vacillated in the war against Hitler, boasts some of the most virulent anti-Israel rhetoric. The simple reality is that one cannot understand the current western European left-wing war against the nation-state of the Jewish people without first acknowledging the long-term European war against the Jewish people themselves.
Theodore Herzl understood the pervasiveness and irrationality of European anti-Semitism, which led him to the conclusion that the only solution to Europe's Jewish problem was for European Jews to leave that bastion of Jew-hatred and return to their original homeland, which is now the State of Israel.
None of this is to deny Israel's imperfections or the criticism it justly deserves for some of its policies. But these imperfections and deserved criticism cannot even begin to explain, much less justify, the disproportionate hatred directed against the only nation-state of the Jewish people and the disproportionate silence regarding the far greater imperfections and deserved criticism of other nations and groups including the Palestinians.
Nor is this to deny that many western European individuals and some western European countries have refused to succumb to the hatred against the Jews or their state. The Czech Republic comes to mind. But far too many western Europeans are as irrational in their hatred toward Israel as their for-bearers were in their hatred toward their Jewish neighbors.
As author Amos Oz once aptly observed: the walls of his grandparents' Europe were covered with graffiti saying, "Jews, go to Palestine." Now they say, "Jews, get out of Palestine," by which is meant Israel.
Who do these western European bigots think they're fooling? Only fools who want to be fooled in the interest of denying that they are manifesting new variations on their grandparents' old biases. Any objective person with an open mind, open eyes, and an open heart must see the double standard being applied to the nation-state of the Jewish people. Many doing so are the grandchildren of those who lethally applied a double standard to the Jews of Europe in the 1930s and 1940s.

Remembering my father Victor Alloway Rawlings
Every year in early November during the days leading up to Remembrance Day on the 11th; I think of my father, Victor Alloway Rawlings. He volunteered for service as a Canadian Soldier, leaving his pregnant wife and loved ones as so many hundreds of thousands of other men. She received the telegram in April 1945 announcing that at the age of 28 he died liberating Holland from the Nazi horror of World War II. His death, as that of any loved one, was sadly tragic to all who knew him; coming on 09 April 1945 He fell just three weeks before the Armistice or the Nazi surrender to the allies that was signed on 08 May 1945, marking VE Day or Victory over Europe.
I don't believe my Mother ever got over her loss. I was 2 months old at the time, and have an illustrated love letter that he wrote to me just weeks before he died. It is a treasure. Thankfully, I can say with assurance that he was a believer and that one day I (we) will be united with him in heavenly places.
Through the tender mercies of our God,
with which the Dayspring.
(The Messiah) from on high has visited us;
to give light to those who sit in darkness
and under the shadow of death.
To guide our feet into the way of Peace "
Luke 1:78-7
Portrait: Victor Rawlings by James Christian Rawlings grandson.
The Greek word for 'peace' is 'Eirere' in the above verse it refers to "a state of rest, quietness and calmness; an absence of strife; or tranquility." It generally denotes a perfect sense of well being. "Eirene" includes harmonious relationships between God and man, men and men, nation and nations, family and families. Jesus as the "Prince of Peace'; gives true, lasting peace to those who call upon Him for personal salvation. My prayer is that you hold this peace very close to your heart and mind. And may you be enriched because of your loving kindness to us Rawlings living here in Israel. You cannot know how encouraging it is to receive your responses via our websites and letters. I pray you are as happy about hearing from us as we are hearing from you. I say within all sincerity. Times are not getting easier to any of us and friends have never meant more than they do right now. For those of you suffering health challenges, I want you to know that we take your words to heart and pray for you. Often the Holy Spirit will keep bringing you to mind until you are on your feet again. We are watchmen and count it a privilege.
From the Greek word for 'peace', we have the lady's name, Irene. Irene Bredlow and Meridel became best friends at age 18 when in 1960 they met and entered nurses training together at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton, Alberta Canada. They were both adventurous, becoming life saviors, earning the bar to their bronze in swimming in their spare time. Both won special awards at graduation for their excellence work. Unknown upon graduation, was the calling to Israel that they both received. Today Irene lives about 1 kilometer from Tiberias in Poriyah in the Galilee. We get together when time permits, perhaps four times a year for fellowship, prayer, and fun. She and Meridel talk for hours and hours. I get to witness them laughing and giggling like girls. My job when we are together is to be their butler and chief cook. I become 'Throck Morton' and place a towel over my right arm as I serve their food. I enjoy it, they deserve a break, and spoil me as the butler! What fun! There are no friends like old friends!
Irene has a beautiful ministry of serving those who love the Lord all around the Sea of Galilee. For years she volunteered as a nurse in Beersheba, and also in the Poriya General Hospital. She is also an excellent tour guide for visitors from abroad and takes them to the Biblical locations where the gospel stories unfolded. Her Bed and Breakfast ministry is known as Galilee Gardens. If any of you would like to visit the Galilee and stay with Irene; just let us know and we will make the connection. For sure, you will find "peace" in her home.
Thanks again for your words of encouragement, and your prayers for us as a family and team. We are humbled by your own difficult circumstances and your assurance of prayers for each one of us. We will never underestimate the price you pay for your financial help. Together you make it possible for us to remain in Israel. We have one million seniors in this land who live under the poverty line. It is tragic. And we know that the LORD is watching out to keep us well and cared for.
So we do count our blessing every day and are grateful. Only the Lord will be able to adequately reward you on that Day!
Jay Rawlings, Meridel, David, Chris, Josh and Daniel.

We wish you a sweet and blessed Jewish New Year!
Jerusalem Vistas September 2018
To our Jerusalem Vistas Partners and Friends:
We in Jerusalem are wishing you and your loved ones a sweet and blessed Jewish New Year.
We join with our Jewish family in marking this last month of Elul with sincere soul-searching accompanied with repentance. The path always seems to get narrower and steeper but blessed.
The only hope for Israel, with Iranian forces amassing on our Northern Border in Syria, is Divine intervention. We all know that Israel's enemies will continue to expand until they are stopped once and for all and that apparently is what the United States and Russia hope to do. Do you believe it? I hope not. Man is only man. Our God who sits in the heavens shall laugh at the folly of men. Psalm 2. Do not for a moment be tempted to think that your prayers and support are not important! Thank you.
John Bolton, US National Security Advisor said recently in a press briefing in Jerusalem; "Putin has told Trump that he "would like to see the withdrawal of Iranian troops from Syria, but he is not able to do it himself." As the scriptures below forecast, we are living to witness this end time military build up "from the land of the north."
Ezekiel 38:3,5. "Thus says the LORD God, Behold I am against you O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Mehech, and Tubal. I will turn you around and put hooks in your jaws, and lead you out with all your army…Persia, (Iran), Ethiopia, and Libya…they will come to a land that dwells safely to take a booty…" (Booty-Israel has discovered one of the largest natural gas finds in the world today in their offshore gas wells)
It will be 50 years (as of Oct 2019) that we have been set as "Watchmen on the Walls of Jerusalem," proclaiming Biblical events in the media as they have unfolded for over half of Israel's modern lifetime. As you probably know we have been struggling financially for the last six months. We realize that many of our partners are elderly and are on fixed incomes. We are sensitive to these facts so we work to create a new support base, which is difficult because now that we are appealing to internet-based audience, people feel little compulsion to support Jerusalem Vistas.
How well I remember Dr. James Dobson, Founder of 'Focus on the Family' and what he did when the ministry was in dire financial need. After seeking the LORD, he wrote to his partners and said: "IF this ministry is no longer supported by its partners, I will have to close it."
It was just that simple, and that is exactly the situation that we at Jerusalem Vistas/Israel Vision find ourselves today. I know that we are not afraid to change. Meridel and I feel very badly that none of our team have been paid their small salaries for the last three months. This has caused tremendous stress, piled upon the added stress of just living here. We cannot carry on in this manner. We have never shirked from 'following hard after God' and this crisis is absolutely no different. The truth is, the future of this work lies in your blessed hands. If you have any way of helping us to go on, we pray that you will find a way to do so and do it immediately.
Here below are ways you can support our ministry. Thank you in advance for your support.
On our website, you can donate to us via PayPal.

From Meridel's Desk… January 2018
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your prayers and financial contributions. It has been put into the 'pot' to help keep our doors open and the work going forward. Here are some pointers to encourage you in prayer for us. The time is grave and growing ever more so… and we have to daily submit our hearts to Jesus. I told Jay, I feel like a leaf trembling on the end of a branch. But God…! We have learned to encourage ourselves in Him day after day.
Kindly join Jay and I in this prayer for our four sons all working in Media: David 48 yrs, Christian 46, Joshua 42 and Daniel 31. They have been a tremendous blessing to us over these many years, but we sense the Holy Spirit wants to loose them for even greater service. We pray: Sanctify them – purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy – by the Truth. Your Word is Truth. Just as you sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world." John 17:17, 18.
Ministry Goals for 2018:
Well the LORD IS ON THE MOVE! When we grow weary He brings strength from most
unexpected quarters, for which we are daily grateful.
1. Our film on Human Trafficking and Sexual Abuse Change Action Nepal has been translated into German; for Germany and Switzerland, the cost donated by a Swiss friend.
2. This film has also just been synchronised into Spanish by a dear friend who gave us the best price for his work. We have given a Pastor in Guatemala our release for multiple televised showings out to his 11 million viewers. We spent years in South America in the 70's and since then have prayed these many years for our work to go out in Spanish.
3. We have just released a video on our web sites and blog about the situation in Gaza. It is very topical with the current unrest and rocket attacks. Iran stands in the shadow of terror.
4. Our son Josh is moving up to Jerusalem from Jaffa. He and Daniel, our camera man-editor are excited to finally be setting up Israel Vision's brand new television studio. This is a new day! Josh is a professional in many aspects of media, currently working for 'start ups' in Tel Aviv. I quote him: "Dad, I have made a lot of people wealthy, now I am going to devote part of each day to promote Israel Vision and Still Small Voice projects for they really count."
5. CAN – Change Action Nepal is finally incorporated provincially and federally in Canada. Our lawyer has a special love for Nepal and is donating her expertise. She has guided us through all of the legal process and is now willing to serve on the Board.
6. This year, our team will concentrate on producing topical video updates for our viewers, right here within our own studio in Israel. We will continue to educate concerning the importance of Israel. Israel is not a political issue… it is actually a Biblical issue for ALL peoples, whether they believe the Bible or not. We are watching horrified as anti-Semitism explodes to pre WW11 levels. So to we see the onslaught against Christians globally. God is calling out: "WHO is on the LORD"S side?" Lets allow HIM to move us and lead us in 2018!
7. I, Meridel am completing my latest book entitled "Erasing Indelible Stains"… I lay bare the depths of what INIQUITY is and how this mysterious force affects our generations. I paint an in depth portrait of the horrors of sexual abuse within the frame work of so called 'normal life'. I systematically dissect this crippling disease and do my best to tenderly and carefully walk my reader through the delicate deliverance and healing processes.
8. Jay and team are completing a film he directed and Daniel shot in December. Tracey is a British woman who rides her horses by faith. This time she rode her faithful steeds from Northern Israel up into Jerusalem and as far south as the Ramon Crater. On camera, she shares the history of Israel that she learns from locals along her route.
9. The Heart of God at Work in Israel Today: is an in depth look at the outreaches going on to the needy from within the Messianic Community here in Israel, be they Jews, Arabs, Ethiopians Refugees. We completed the film in Dec and Jay is now helping the producers introduce it into Canada. Our mandate has always been to seek the Kingdom of God as we love to film the work for other ministries in the land as well as our own. Meridel and Daniel are in prayer about going to Dallas Texas to TD Jakes Pastors and Leaders Conference this April 17th to 21st. We don't want to miss anything God has for us. We do understand that we need to move with the times. We hesitate only because of the expense; but it is vital for us all to be strengthened. I, Meridel would be so happy if Josh could free himself to go in my place. Mention this in your prayers please. Your caring, praying and giving to us over the coming year will enable us to continue to work to bring forth this mystery of the Kingdom of God on earth. My family joins in with heart felt thanks for your support.
Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven this 2018.
Remember the Tentifada in 2011?
"Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the ends of the earth.
Among them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and the one who labours with child together,A great throng shall return there. They shall come with weeping…"Jeremiah 31:8,9a.
In spite of her neighbours with their ongoing lies and continuous attacks, paradoxically, Israel IS Noah's Arc for Jews according to the Almighty. They began to return home in the 1880's. No nation wanted Jews. If you doubt this, do a little checking, (Canada included!) The situation only grew worse during WWII. Poor Jews returned to Biblical Zion with weeping weakened by disease and malnutrition just as the Prophets perceived and faithfully penned. This is what makes Israel absolutely unique! Oh, how we love to work to encourage any we meet, to come and take their rightful place here in history…this has always been an underlying goal of our original call, which sent us to Jewish Communities world wide.
Wanting now to focus on inside of Israel, we at Israel Vision are re-posting this production from the summer of 2011. Israelis of all ages were out in protest, locally known as the Tentifada, living in tents and trying to tell the government that they must keep their promises to their citizens. Did these protests bring significant change?Israel is not a perfect country, but it is the only Democracy in the Middle East and our people for the most part remain steadfast and loyal. However, many people, young and old alike, have reached the breaking point. Today, in 2018 is again one of those times.
Anyone who has lived in Israel can attest to the fact that the rents and cost of living are extremely high, and wages are low. Compared to the USA, we pay 23% more in our "cost of living index". At the same time, the wages are disgracefully low…so low in fact that a large sector of society can barely afford to rent the meanest of places. The idea of owning an apartment is now, "pie in the sky", to say nothing of ever owning a house.
To buy a very small apartment will cost about 1.5 to 2 million shekels (between 4-5 hundred thousand dollars). The banks do not give mortgages easily. You must have at least 25% down, and an income of about 20,000 shekels per month, (US 6,000). The long and short of it is: most ordinary people barely earn above minimum wage of 5,000 shekels or US 1,500 dollars per month.
As for rentals, if you live around Jerusalem you will be lucky to find something for under 5,000 shekels (about $1,500)per month. In Israel you must also add property taxes (yes, the renter pays the taxes), building upkeep, and Insurance in addition to the on going monthly expenses of electricity, water, gas and phone/internet/cable. All this for a tiny place with no closets, cupboards, appliances and in most cases no light fixtures. Of course, there are always "good deals"but they are few and far in between and there will be dozens of people wanting them. No wonder people are up in arms. We are a hungry country with 1 in 3 children in Israel living in poverty. Can you believe that? Its a shocker!
So…in frustration and desperation people set up tents and protest. Today, almost seven years on we must ask, "are things any better?" To be honest, there have been improvements for the disabled which everyone is happy about, but the high cost of living~as in most countries~continues and more and more Israelis are falling through the cracks.

Greetings for a blessed Rosh ha Shannah 5778
Dear Friends and Partners of Israel Vision,
We are inspired by this piece and know that you will be too. Israel is masterful at finding her lost treasures, especially her spiritual treasure. Please enjoy this and pass it on far and wide.
You are well aware that Israel has said in so many words that 'Evil' is not going to flourish on our watch. We went up in Galilee one night looking out over the Sea and there were three aircraft which drew our attention. Then we heard the bombs. Yes… they took out a hidden secret Syrian factory of deadly gases. In 2013, Syria was believed by the world that she had gotten rid of her chemical warfare. We are dealing with liars and killers. Give thanks for Israel dear friends. You know the scripture says about the SALT OF THE EARTH! WE HAVE NOT LOST OUR SAVOUR. Pray for us all here.
Now to end with a very sweet, and inspiring note:
Jay and I send you greetings for a blessed Rosh ha Shannah 5778.
It comes in the evening of September 20th until the 23rd.
Let the LORD God be blessed!
Love from the Rawlings tribe.

Balance the body, mind, emotions & energetic field with sonic massage guided by Patricia Carlota.
Creating a nurturing and transformational space, a Gong Bath is a form of Sound Healing. At its heart is the sound and vibration of the gong, which works as a tool to balance the body, mind, emotions, energetic field, and spirit. Known as the sound of total resonance, the sound of the gong gives the whole of our being a sonic massage helping to: stimulate circulation, activate the parasympathetic nervous system; slow down brainwaves and connect with meditative states and insights; let go of emotional burdens; clear energetic debris; expand awareness; connect within; and entrain to harmony.
Participants are invited to lay down on mats, close their eyes, relax, let go, and experience a sonic immersion as they are cocooned in the vibration of multiple gongs, singing bowls, voice, Shruti box, and various bells, rattles, shakers, and chimes.
The session begins with a guided meditation to welcome participants into space, connect with our essence and heart space, let go through the breath, and set intention, as we prepare to journey inwards with the sound of the gong and related therapeutic sound tools.


Due to the increasing interest in cat litter, SC Johnson and its home care brand Glade have teamed up with Tidy Cats to expand into the cat litter category. With a global share of 12% in 2013, Tidy Cats from Nestlé SA leads the category. Glade, on the other hand, achieved a 23% share in air care in 2012, with sales worth some US$586 million, although its competitiveness is being undermined by the slow performance of home care in more developed markets, where its presence is stronger. Tapping into the more vibrant pet care market could provide the brand with new opportunities. Cat litter, on the other hand, is being impacted by the presence of private label, which is limiting its prospects for further gains. Innovation is thus key to adding value in what is a fairly commoditised category. Whether this could bring about new partnerships and ventures in the future remains to be seen but it is possible that Catsan (Mars) could be next to partner a home care brand and it seems strange that Procter & Gamble and its Febreze brand have not as yet ventured into the pet care space. With a close link between pet ownership and carpet cleaner usage, Reckitt Benckiser's aptly named Vanish could be another brand with a future in pet care.

Does a bagel shop really need an alcohol license? A proper bar next door, liquor store across the street, etc… Stick with bagels that for some reason compel people to wait in line around the block.
They recently announced plans to branch out in the evenings and do a supper club.

Looking for Drug Rehab and treatment centers in Modena, Pennsylvania?
There are lots of alcohol and drug rehab programs solutions to folks living in the Modena region. It is important to understand all the varieties of rehab possibilities that are available in Modena, AB., so that you can choose the suitable rehabilitation option for yourself or a loved one. Choosing the proper alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility in Modena is the central factor in the process of treating of substance abuse, drug addiction and alcoholism. This information will help ensure you fully grasp your numerous rehab options allowing an individual to have the highest potential for an ideal final result.
Let's examine the various drug treatment facilities in Modena, Pennsylvania choices that coincide with the condition of the individual looking for treatment.
Inpatient drug treatment in Modena, AB. is really a rehab choice ideal for many who require health-related intervention in the course of rehabilitation or individuals with substantial substance abuse histories. Men and women can develop both mental and physical dependence to drugs and alcohol even after a brief amount of time, so inpatient alcohol and drug rehab in Modena is among the best rehabilitation choice in almost all situations. As a result of dependence and addiction, men and women will often be unable to recover with the minimal solutions provided by outpatient treatment centers in Modena, Pennsylvania where drugs and alcohol continue to be easily obtainable when they depart the outpatient center. Likewise, individuals in rehabilitation who take part in outpatient rehab rather than inpatient alcohol and drug treatment in Modena remain vulnerable to negative relationships and circumstances which can compromise their process of recovery. If an individual resides with an abusive companion or continues to maintain relationships which involve drug use, any rehab activities in outpatient rehab will be in vain. This is why in-patient alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Modena, AB. will result in more beneficial outcomes which will prove long lasting unlike an outpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation center where advantages are often very minimal and short-lived.
In Modena there's both short-term and long-term inpatient drug rehabilitation. Short-term is often a 30-day center, while long-term inpatient drug and alcohol rehab in Modena, Pennsylvania is more intensive and treatment lasts 3 to 6 months generally speaking. It is really an excellent setting for clients as it is a completely drug free setting where they are able to recover both physically and mentally without interruptions. Ideally, men and women will continue inside a long-term in-patient drug and alcohol rehabilitation program in Modena for the optimum time frame allowed, in order to deal with anything which may cut across their abstinence once they leave treatment. Because of the fact that detoxing and becoming physically stable can require a couple weeks by itself, the three to six months in long-term in-patient alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Modena will be time wisely spent and significantly more efficient than short-term programs.
The key factor of all if you or a loved one is struggling with a drug abuse or addiction concern is to get it resolved right away, call someone and seek the advice of trained addiction specialists and have an evaluation and treatment possibilities to ensure the greatest chance for a full recovery.

Q: TeXMaker doesn't work after upgrade to OS X El Capitan I have now read a lot of guides and stuff about, why TeXMaker won't work.
It should work, but it won't - and I therefore hope, that some of you can help me. I have changed the usr/texbin to /library/TeX/texbin/ EVERYWHERE.
Here is two updated photos of my preferences => "Commands" and "Quick Build". I hope someone can help me:

Is it necessary to download and install the new MacTeX-2015-packages?
I really hate this - it still says the following:

A: I had exactly the same problem and suggest you locate the files yourself.
My files, for example, are located in Library/TeX/Root/bin/x86_64-darwin/
and I therefore replaced usr/texbin/ with Library/TeX/Root/bin/x86_64-darwin/ everywhere instead of library/TeX/texbin/.

A: I have the same problem. I narrowed it down to the fact, that ghostscript doesn't work. Therefore, converting an EPS-File into PS works, but PS to PDF doesn't. I hope that someone can help me figure this out. I tried to install Ghostscript again, but the installer won't let me change the directory to anything else than /usr/local and since this directory is restricted since El Capitan, I don't see any way to fix this :(
@Gavin: there is no gs (= GhostScript) in that folder, thats the problem!

A: A lot of people explained that the way to go is replace the path with the one in your computer. My problem was that I didn't know how to find the path in the first place. What I did was I opened the terminal and looked for a specific file, for example pdflatex. To do so I typed:
mdfind pdflatex

This will display the path of all files containing pdflatex in their name. From there it was (at least for me) kind of arbitrary to decide which was the actual path. I found one including the words darwin and usr/local and used that one, and it worked. More specifically the path for my computer was
/usr/local/texlive/2016/bin/x86_64-darwin/

I hope this helps.

A: here's my solution, different w.r.t. those before:

The Great Exhibition of the North is underway. But will it fulfil the hopes of its creators? Patrick Kelly has a look.
Newcastle likes a party, as anyone who attended the launch of the £13.2 million Great Exhibition of the North could see. The quaysides on both banks of the River Tyne were packed with people enjoying the balmy summer weather and the spectacular opening ceremony for the event, which featured hundreds of drones fitted with LED lights in an aerial display swooping between the Sage music centre and the Baltic art gallery, followed by the launch of an 80m water sculpture, poetry by Lemn Sissay, a fireworks display and a set by local band Maximo Park.
GEN describes itself as "a free, summer-long celebration of the North of England's pioneering spirit", incorporating "a programme of amazing exhibits, live performances, displays of innovation, new artworks and unforgettable experiences". And they have got an enticing line up. At the Great North Museum, for example, more than 200 items are on loan from the UK's leading museums, galleries and private collections. They include a spacesuit worn by the Sheffield-born astronaut Helen Sharman; a rare miniature book created by Charlotte Brontë; the original models of Postman Pat and the last piano played by John Lennon. Stephenson's Rocket, an early steam engine, made in Newcastle in 1829 will be on display at the Discovery Museum, alongside a modern Azuma train, made in County Durham. BALTIC will present a series of exhibitions and stunning offsite commissions from renowned artists, all of whom have strong connections to the North. They include such luminaries as Michael Dean and Lubiana Himid and Phil Collin's whose restored Soviet-era statue of Friedrich Engels is already a highlight. The Sage Gateshead will curate a summer of music concerts, festivals and family activity. These three hub venues are at the heart of the event and from each of them walking trails extend across the twin cities, organised around the themes of art, design and innovation, linking various visitor attractions and events.
Each night, the water sculpture in the Tyne will be illuminated. Water will shoot up to the height of the Tyne Bridge, dancing to a soundtrack of specially commissioned collaborations by Maximo Park and Kate Rusby with Royal Northern Sinfonia. (Though an accident with a boat has put an end to this spectacle, at least for the moment).
Newcastle and Gateshead, which won the bid to host the event against competition from other Northern bastions like Bradford and Blackpool, hopes to generate about £184m in total spending from the extravaganza.
Its modelled on the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, which attracted six million people, and the North East Coast Exhibition which attracted more than four million visitors in 1929.
The hope is that GETNorth, as its now being called locally, will boost a tourism trade that already nets Newcastle and Gateshead £950m a year.
But this latest manifestion of Northern pride began in what also now seems a distant past, when George Osborne was Chancellor and in the prime of his "Northern Powerhouse" pomp. He pledged £5m for the festival itself and £15m for culture around the region as part of his strategy of promoting the North.
£1.82m: grant funding, including £1.7m from National Lottery (inc Heritage Lottery Fund, Big Lottery Fund and Arts Council England) plus James Knott Foundation, Barbour Foundation and Reece Foundation.
£2.34m: support from local delivery partners (including BALTIC, Sage Gateshead, Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums, Newcastle City Council and Gateshead Council).
But not everyone is happy with this munificence. A group of local artists and community activists have set up an "alternative" event, The Other Exhibition of the North, aimed at being "broader and more diverse". Their manifesto describes GETNorth as "a politically motivated attempt by a Tory government to Artwash its policies of austerity and privatisation." Their alternative event promises to include individuals and communities who won't get a look into the main programme.
There was also a controversy when artists threatened to pull out when they discovered it was sponsored by arms manufacturer BAE Systems (BAE ended up pulling out instead). The row was not helped by comments from Jake Berry, the Northern Powerhouse minister, condemning the critics as "snowflakes" and "subsidy-addicted artists".
He compares the government subvention to the Treasury's £78m investment in The Factory theatre and arts venue to be built on the site of the former Granada Studios in Manchester. "GEN is the latest in a line of projects that are nationally conceived and overseen, hindered by limited resources, burdened by overblown claims about likely impacts and with questionable objectives," he says.
Will GetNorth realise the dreams of its supporters? Newcastle/Gateshead has been a pioneer of culture related investment for decades, and they can be relied upon to rustle up something impressive even on a tight budget. It's very likely that the visitors will come and they will spend their money. Whether it will produce a sea-change in the North's economic prospects is another matter entirely. New jobs, new infrastructure, improved transport links will all be needed to restore the region's economic health.


Saudi couple Sara and Abdullah chose the amazing team of KM Events to plan their dream destination wedding in Feriye Palace in Istanbul. The Feriye Palace is a complex of Ottoman imperial palace buildings situated along the European shoreline of the Bosphorus strait in Istanbul, Turkey.
The bride wanted to have a different and a unique wedding using less flowers and giving more of a rustic touch. The team at KM Events created the kosha with an inspiration of a rustic swing, while at the entrance area they created a special dessert buffet for the bride; the chocolates were specially made for her. The overall wedding theme was simple and rustic.
Take a look at these beautiful wedding pictures.

Q: Horizontal asymptote definition I was reviewing a problem on an old math contest and it had a problem asking for horizontal, vertical, and slant asymptotes.
The equation was this:
$y=\frac{x^{2}-3x-4}{x^{3}-x^{2}-30x+72}$
Here's a graph:

It said that $y=0$ was a horizontal asymptote. However, the graph shows that it crosses $y=0$, which led to my question: What's the definition of a horizontal asymptote?
Here's something taken from www.freemathhelp.com: "A horizontal asymptote is a y-value on a graph which a function approaches but does not actually reach. Here is a simple graphical example where the graphed function approaches, but never quite reaches, y=0."
The example never said anything about one part of the graph approaching it, but another part intersecting it. That confused me. Thanks in advance.

A: Actually, it means that a function never reaches its horizontal asymptote when $x\to \infty$. It imposes no restriction for bounded values of $x$.

Nanocage surfaces get makeover in room temperature
(Nanowerk News) Kyoto University researchers have discovered a way of replacing surface ions of copper oxide nanocrystals at ambient conditions -- a feat that will make nanocage production considerably simpler (Science, "Creating semiconductor nanocages").
Kyoto University team exploit preexisting crystal "molds" to make copper oxide nanocrystals morph into hollow copper sulfide nanocages through anion exchange, and ultimately into cadmium sulfide and zinc sulfide nanocages. (Image: Kyoto University) (click on image to enlarge)
Ionic semiconductor nanocages can be used as photoelectric conversion materials like those used in solar panels. Like a cage in the literal sense, nanocages can also encapsulate drugs and enzymes, promising further developments for targeted drug delivery.
The new method devised by Hsin-Lun Wu and colleagues at Kyoto University exploits preexisting crystal "molds" to make copper oxide nanocrystals morph into hollow copper sulfide nanocages through anion exchange, and ultimately into cadmium sulfide and zinc sulfide nanocages.
Nanocages appear in multiple crystal systems depending on their shapes, including cubic and hexagonal systems. Previously, in order to derive hexagonal zinc sulfide nanocages, it was necessary to apply high heat up to around 1000 degrees celcius to zinc sulfide nanocages with a cubic system.
With the Kyoto team's method, all it takes is to expose hexahedral or dodecahedral copper oxide nanocrystals to sodium sulfide; with this process, anions on the surface get replaced, transforming the surface of the nanocrystal to copper sulfide. In addition, the copper oxide in the inside dissolves so as to create a hollow nanocage. When these copper sulfide nanocages are exposed to cadmium nitrate or zinc nitrate, the copper cations become replaced to yield cadmium sulfide nanocages and zinc sulfide nanocages, respectively.
The authors write that such chemical conversions can "overcome the difficulties associated with controlling the size, shape, chemical composition, and crystal structure."
"We never expected that this could be done in such a simple step," says Toshiharu Teranishi, a senior author of the study.
The team hopes to test this method on nanocrystals with various ionic makeup. "Ionic nanocrystals come in so many flavors," said Teranishi. "We're working to find out whether this could be applied as a general method for not just copper oxide nanocrystals, but for other ionic nanocrystals as well."
