EBENEZER OPERATION EXODUS

You are invited to hear about the work of Ebenezer Operation Exodus through representatives Merrill and Donna Bolender on Thursday, January 22, 7:00 p.m. in the ACA auditorium. The Bolenders have been involved in Jewish ministry since 1980. They lived and worked in Israel during the 1980s. They began reading about the work of Ebenezer Operation Exodus in assisting Jews out of Russia. In 2002, the Bolenders attended an Ebenezer Conference where the Lord confirmed that they were to be involved in this ministry. They applied to be volunteers and in 2004 they went on five sailings from the Ukraine to Israel with Jewish immigrants. The Bolenders now serve as representatives of Ebenezer Operation Exodus in the USA and serve on a National Development team. For more information call Mary Ehrlich at 918-622-9573.
