CENTRAL AFRICA RISING UP FOR ISRAEL

In March, the Christian Embassy’s representative in Cameroon, Apostle Julius Ekie, organised an international conference in the capital of Yaoundé under the theme of the Church’s role in standing with a restored Israel. More than 150 leaders from all provinces across the country attended the conference, including five highly-esteemed patriarchs who were the main church founders in Cameroon. In a strong show of unity, they all expressed support for building relations with Israel. The climax of the conference was a time of prayer for Israel and Cameroon and a symbolic exchange of each nation’s flags. The speakers included ICEJ Vice President for International Affairs Dr. Mojmir Kallus, coming from Jerusalem, as well as Pastor Jean Lee from South Korea and Bishop Laurent Do Rego from Gabon. The gathering shows that believers in Central Africa are mobilising for Israel and we look forward to welcoming many of them as Feast pilgrims in September.
