9TH OF AV 2012

Today is a very important date in Jewish history, and many Jewish people consider this date to be a time of mourning for their people because of the tragic events that have happened on this date throughout the years.  Please take a few minutes to read these events and familiarize yourself with them today as the Sabbath begins at sundown.  I am asking that all of us would be in prayer for our Jewish brothers and sisters as well as the situation in the Middle East which continues to escalate each day, even each hour. We need to stand behind Israel and defend her as this is what our Father has commanded.
