This ministry is thriving and growing as a result of God blessing the resources many like you have so faithfully invested with us to date. On behalf of the board and staff of RCO Ministries, the children of the Home of New Life and the congregations in Ramla and Ramallah, we want to say, “THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!”

Jackie, Sharon, Munir, Michael Dr. Munir & Sharon Kakish Lily & Carmen Kakish along with Michael & Jackie Kakish This is how it has been for the believers in the city of And yet the people continue to come and invite Ramla, Israel to attend church week after week: others. The church continues to grow.

Why? Because the presence and the work of

the Holy Spirit is real in that church.

WELCOME TO OUR CHURCH!

 Sorry: Limited room in the sanctuary. Seating may be real tight!  Not enough room to accommodate all your children during the service.  No room to accommodate mothers with

infants... We apologize for any inconvenience!

The believers have been trying to raise funds to move from the three-bedroom apartment they are using for a church into an adequate building. Though limited in number and means, they have managed to come up with $250,000. Because of the high land / property prices in Israel, they need at least $500,000.

This Christmas, RCO Ministries is determined to help the believers in Ramla raise at least $250,000 to purchase church property. We would love for you to be part of this miracle as well!

Thank you

RCO MINISTRIES IS A 501(c)3 NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION. WHY RAMLA, ISRAEL?

 RAMLA IS A CENTRAL CITY IN A SIGNIFICANT AREA IN ISRAEL! Ramla is a twin city to the city of Lod and is also in close proximity to the city of Joppa (Jaffa). Not only do these cities carry significant Biblical value, but the area in general is very dynamic in our modern day. It integrates Jews and Arabs within its population with relative tolerance! Ramla is also close to major cities like Tel Aviv and Rishon LeZion, and is only minutes away from Israel’s main airport—Ben Gurion. Ramla, Israel

 MORE IMPORTANTLY, RAMLA IS ONE OF THE PLACES WHERE WE SEE THE HOLY SPIRIT CURRENTLY AT WORK. We see a few but mighty disciples who are Spirit -filled and hungry for God’s will to be done in their lives and community. They meet almost everyday for long hours of prayers. They pray for the sick and the sick are healed. They earnestly pray for the salvation of their family members and we continue to see new members of their family joining in almost every service. They preach the word of God boldly and people repent and take in the word with great joy.

With the constant horrors that have been taking place all around and the ongoing internal conflicts that are moving people to murder one another in the name of religion, we feel very strongly about supporting the growth and expansion of Christ’s church and its outreaches in the Holy Land. We look forward to partnering with you towards expanding the church in Ramla,. THANK YOU FOR INVESTING IN GOD’S KINGDOM AND IN PEOPLE’S LIVES!
