What happens when young Jewish and Arab followers of Jesus come together to worship God in Israel?
Walls come down and the Glory of God is shown through their love and unity!
Hundreds of Jewish and Arab young people came together in Tel Aviv last month from all over Israel to worship God and pray for their cities and their generation. These exuberant followers of Jesus joined with young believers from the nations for the annual ELAV youth conference. ‘Elav’ is a Hebrew word meaning ‘towards him/unto him’ and the messages and worship during this 3 day gathering encouraged and inspired the youth of Israel to get closer to God and be empowered by Him to make a difference in their nation.

Your People My People was overjoyed to witness first-hand these annual gatherings so vital to build up the youth of Israel in their walk with the Lord. Many of these young people are isolated in their faith being the only believers in their schools and communities. Gatherings like ELAV are an important opportunity for them to connect with other believers of their own age and also to make friends with believers from other communities. One Arab Christian commented that he had never met Jewish believers before and another Jewish teen expressed how great it was to be able to pray together with an Arab brother. Teaching came from local leaders and international speakers: Mike Pilavachi from Soul Survivor, England, and Wes Hall from IHOP-Kansas City, USA. American worship leader, Eddie James, led powerful times of praise and worship and was joined by several anointed, local youth worship teams.“ELAV 2011 was more than a conference; it was a place to transform the youth and the city of Tel Aviv Land of Israel for His Kingdom and Glory.” said Simon, an Israeli believer and a session leader in a house of prayer in Tel Aviv.
