Over the course of twenty-one days, something extraordinary happened. From September 10 through September 30, over 1000 people from 48 nations participated in three weeks of global fasting and prayer focused on Jerusalem. Led by Robert Stearns along 48Participated Countries in 21-days of fasting and with over thirty global Christian leaders, this fast included special prayer sessions on Facebook prayer for Jerusalem Live with various special guests, including a session with an Orthodox Rabbi, which had over 100,000 views. The fast led up to the global Awake Jerusalem gathering in Jerusalem October 7-9, which began with the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem! This year the Day of Prayer event was broadcast live to 190 nations, featuring internationally-acclaimed worship and dance artists, and a keynote speech by Deputy Prime Minister of Israel, Dr. Michael Oren. 22 languages Following that event around 500 young millennial Christians from 20 nations participated in materials for praying for Jerusalem were translated into a 72-hour round-the-clock event known as Awake Jerusalem, worshiping and prayer in key locations across the city and also with the Christian Arab community in Bethlehem.

Thanks to the generosity of our partners we were able to bring 47 young millennial pastors to Israel. In January we brought a group of key leaders from America and in October we brought some of the most significant key millennial leaders in Brazil. The impact of this trip cannot be overstated, both in its significance for Israel, America and for Brazil. The combined social media reach alone of the pastors on these trips were 5 million followers.

This trip was a strategic moment to allow these major influencers of the next generation to get to see first-hand what Israel was all about. The trip not only changed their perspective about Israel but bonded these leaders together in a profound way. As Bishop Robert taught them throughout the journey, they began to understand why this land was so important for Christians today. Each day they would post what they were learning to their social media, educating tens of thousands more. The pastors’ group had a chance to meet and interact with government leaders, Jewish religious leaders, and Palestinian Christians. They also visited the Eagles’ Wings Abraham’s Bread Feeding Center that is caring for those in need in the land. Many are already planning to return to with their congregations. combined5 Million social media reach of these pastors Millennial Pastors Mission to Israel - Continued

Bishop Robert and the Eagles’ Wings team have been invited to speak at eight key churches in Brazil, focusing on the topic of why Christians should stand with Israel. We are also working with several movements in the nations to bring as many as 1,000 Brazilian Christians to Israel in 2019.
