Before I get into today’s Mideast Update, including another miraculous story of God’s grace and mercy, let’s look at a passage of Scripture in the book of Romans: 14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…11/25/2019…”A Dying Woman’s Vision–Part Two”
I find it amazing that we are almost at the end of 2019. Looking back through the website archives, to see that the subject matter of the Update at the end of November 2018 included four major events, one year ago. Here at the end of November, the House of Blessing missionaries all across the mideast are doing their best […]
Time To PAY ATTENTION!
I read an article by author Jerry Golden (The Golden Report) dated November 9, 2019, titled “When Will the War Begin?” He was referring to the escalating tension between Israel and its neighbors. In answer to the question posed in the title of his article, he wrote: “The answer to that question is soon — very soon. There are a […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…11/6/2019…”A Dying Woman’s Vision”
Over the years that I have been writing these Mideast Updates, passing on stories of real life events experienced by the House of Blessing missionaries, a phenomenon witnessed again and again is the amazing love and forgiveness of God and how it flows through His people, especially at some of the most difficult times. The life of the Apostle Paul […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…10/29/2019
For those who watch news coming out of the Middle East, it seems that the stories of human misery and death never end. I can’t even imagine how it must be for the people who cannot find any way out of the constant turmoil and chaos. It must seem like a roller-coaster from hell that never comes to the end […]

As I write this update I am frequently checking news sources, watching as new developments in the Mideast unfold. There are some late breaking developments that people may or may not be aware of and I will briefly touch on them in this update, and how current events are affecting the work of the House of Blessing missionaries. One of […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…9/16/2019
It seems that the epicenter of the world is moving from one crisis to another. The populations are often used as pawns and also become expendable as major powers struggle for control and warring factions fight to hang onto territories they have gained some control over. This is particularly the case in Idlib province in northwestern Syria. There are varying […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….9/03/2019
In this Mideast Update, I have drawn a portion of a past update for reprinting. It is good to remember the good things God has done in the past. It is also good to remember those who have paid a very high price for their testimony about Messiah Jesus. This story mentions a brother named Omar. This is not the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…8/28/2019…..God’s Grace in the Midst of Turmoil
As I looked through the current news early this morning, I thought back to the days not so long ago when one could skim through the main headlines and read a few of the news articles inside of an hour. Many of those who pay attention to world events unfolding today; particularly those who are aware of Bible prophecy, have […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 8/16/2019
For those who pay attention to world news, you will be aware of the continuing conflict in northwestern Syria. Recently, I mentioned that there was talk of another ceasefire of some sort, but as most expected, it never really came to fruition. The bombing campaigns have only escalated instead. I received two calls from Pastor R in the last few […]
