After months physically apart, we finally had the chance to have a King’s Kids camp at Abu Naeem’s land with the Youth. Themed “Christmas in August''- redirecting our eyes at the salvation that has come and that is yet to come, inspired by the verses in Luke 2:30- 32- when Simon saw the baby Jesus he said: “For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all nations: a light for revelation to the Gentiles,and the glory of your people Israel.” Along with Special times of worship, quiet time, prayer for the nations , ministry including fun times of fellowship and games. Our Goal and our prayer is for the youth to truly experience the goodness and salvation of the Lord even through hard times,suffering and pain. To know Him, love Him,to be excited and fascinated by His salvation . Thank you all for your love and prayers King’s Kids Galilee

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! A special thank you for each and every one of you who walked alongside us all through the past year, lifting us in prayers, believing in the work we are called to do and supporting House of Light Physically, Spiritually and Financially
Prison ministry
O Come all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant....
O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord
Many among us have forgotten the Promise
while we still, are living day to day
on the strong rock of hope, an expectation,
the longing and desire of ages past,
for God’s power to change people
For them to already live in the Kingdom
for Jesus to come again.
- Maranatha!

We have visited so far 6 prisons together. For these visits we were accompanied by a Finnish group, led by Nina Åström, a famous singer who represented Finland in Eurovision Song festival in 2000. The Lord used her in a miraculous way to touch many hearts. Our greatest joy was when one prisoner who we have been visiting for many years, gave his life to Jesus, confessed his sins…. All the eyes were welled with tears.

Rejoice with us dear friends and prayer warriors as our brother Nikolay from Pni’el congregation is back serving with us. More prison visits will start after Hanukah (22 December). We get daily phone calls from different inmates who are waiting for the visit. They also ask for prayers. On these group visits around Christmas we are allowed to give a present for each inmate who attends the meeting. The present measures up to 50NIS. On our year-round visits to 26 prisons in the country we get to know inmates who have no families to support them for their basic needs, so the House of Light cares to put 200-300NIS in their canteen once a month according to their need.
- In the beginning of December prison authorities held a party for all those who volunteer teaching “religion” in prisons. Also the House of Light was appreciated for the voluntary service amongst prisoners of Christian background.
King’s Kids

We had a blessed two-day program in Nazareth where we trained King’s Kids Galilee and Jerusalem groups for performances at the Nazareth village around Christmas. The performances took place on the 8, 9th, 14th, 15th and 16th December. We wish you were with us there to enjoy the lifting up, cheerful events. Around 3500 people entered the Nazareth village during the above dates. Choirs, a Bell band and other groups took part. The Galilee King's Kids team hosted the members of the other team. Hosting families gave a big welcome and they would want to have their youth Arabs & Jews, come together again and again under the Banner of Jesus.

Our little King's Kids, after the very long time work and the great help of the young leaders, were able to prepare a handmade daily Advent Calendar. We are receiving positive reports from families who have received it, who alongside eating the chocolate are doing the family activities appointed for each day.

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:6-7 A family that prays together, stays together…. Not just a saying, but a truth. This annual family encouragement day was geared towards families from the whole body of Christ, families that know the constant need to be encouraged, families that believe in the power of prayer.
