The funds for the vehicle came from Pastor Greg Laurie and his church, Harvest Christian Fellowship. Laurie said to the assembled: “We want to say as Christians that we Stop with Israel. You’re not alone. “
Franklin Graham read from the Bible, saying that Abraham was as the first answer when he saved his nephew.
“Abraham was MDA of his generation,” Graham said. It also took him time to talk directly to three women who had lost his loved ones or had Hamas kept hostage. One of them, Karina Engel, shared her emotional story.
Anngel’s husband, Ronen, was killed by defending their home, and she and her two daughters were abducted and taken to Gaza. They were held 52 days before the release. Ron’s body still holds Hamas.
