Bedouin
The Bedouin in Israel are a grouping of nomadic tribes that are spread throughout the Negev desert. However, due to various factors such as modernization, and government policies, many Bedouin communities in Israel have transitioned from their traditional nomadic lifestyle to a more settled existence in towns and villages. Those who live in unauthorized, illegal villages have temporary homes that are no more than tin shacks. The poverty is endless. Those are the people to whom we are reaching out.
The Bedouin society is traditionally divided into tribes and heavily based on the father of the enlarged family, to which they adhere.
Their culture and religion are Islamic.
Our main focus is on a tribe outside Arad and in the Ramat HaNegev area.
Our Mission
We seek to reach out and build relationships.
Visitations
During our visits, we hope to show them God’s love while also aiding in education and concentrating on relationship building.
Deliver food boxes to the needy
We are providing food, clothing, shoes, and other very necessary things.
This also offers an opportunity to support during times of trouble.
Hebrew lessons
Give Hebrew lessons and other fun activities to the youth. Their knowledge of Hebrew and English is so limited.
Youth and the women
We organize different activities, like a woman's spa or going on a trip with the youth and many more activities.
Translations Program
We are translating and recording the Bible with the Bedouins into an audio Bible in their own dialect.
The activities are being held at the center/ institute that we have in Arad. We pick them up from the village. Just getting out of the village is, by itself, a very special occasion for them.
It is a long-term ministry that builds trust. Many of our visits end with us praying for their needs.
Praise the Lord; we see Him in action among them.
Our Activities
