Helping Victims of Terrorism

 

While lives are shattered by acts of terrorism, For Zion’s Sake Ministries offers a glimmer of hope to these victims through counseling and financial assistance.

Although the global war on terrorism officially began on September 11th, Israel has been fighting this war since her conception. The tragedy of 9-11 statistically killed one in every 97,000 Americans. During a similar time frame Israel has suffered the loss of one in every 7,000 Israelis.

As an organization in the land, we witness the effects of terrorism that never make it to the headlines. While the media quickly report the number of injuries, the severity of their injuries is often ignored. For example, many of these injuries range from missing limbs to shrapnel left within their bodies. Rehabilitation can take years and the emotional scares can last a lifetime.

Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

Through these tragedies For Zion’s Sake seeks to offer help in this time of crisis!

“Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.”
 (Jeremiah 31:10)
