“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”
Isaiah 40:31
The Eagle Project was created for Messianic congregations in Israel to serve young adults who have completed their service in the Israel Defense Forces. This program also aims to help establish relationships and build bridges between believers in Israel and Norway.
Our hope is that God will use the project to build up His next generation in our communities. We trust to see fruits and for the young participants to make a strong connection to the youth abroad and to serve the goals of our God together.
Øyvind Furnes – Norway: The Eagle Project came straight into our vision of buildingrelationships between Gentile and Jewish believers. It has been a great privilege and ananswer to our prayers. We met open doors everywhere we contacted people to join in. MayGod bless you all, and we are excited about the future opportunities.
Eagle Project – June 2015 The Results
This summer eight young adults participated in the program for one month.
We had a very warm welcome and great support from the local believers. We met:
- God’s children and servants
- God’s creation
- The Holy Spirit
A strong foundation to a great bridge was built between Israeli and Norwegian congregations.
Next steps…
God has blessed this project and we believe that He will open the gates for a future activity for young adults from Israel and Norway.
Our vision is to make this program available for every Messianic congregation in Israel to bless IDF ex-soldiers, beginning in 2016.
Our journey Step by Step:
Week 1: Fellowship; our youth were divided into a few groups; lived with families in Oslo and Bergen, Norway.
Week 2: Lived in communes, together with local young believers; Bible study, worship, prayer and hiking.
Week 3: Hiked to the most famous place in Norway and made a 2-day road trip to the north. Met with local believers at Vaksvika; fellowship and services with military testimonies and messianic worship.
Week 4: International young adults encounter a great 5-day conference; our soldiers met the Holy Spirit there, saw miracles, received God’s Word and heard prophesies. Together with a hundred young believers, we worshiped our God and learned to be guided by Him. Had great time of worship, prayer, discipleship, and fellowship.
Week 5: Spent time with local believers; lived with families—fishing, hiking and yes…even shopping. Back home to Israel.
