Sacred Encounters | ONE FOR ISRAEL Ministry

Support Israel in this Crisis!

From the Gospels to your life today…

Does God See Me?

Seven women in the Gospels went unnamed by history – yet each one encountered Yeshua personally. Sacred Encounters walks through their stories and shows how the same Messiah who saw them still sees you, even in what feels overlooked or forgotten in your own life.

WHEN THEIR NAMES WERE FORGOTTEN

History forgot their names. Scripture did not forget their stories.

They were mothers, widows, foreigners, and sinners. Some came to Yeshua in desperation; others approached Him with quiet faith.
Though their names were never recorded, their encounters with Yeshua are now forever a part of the Gospel story.

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light.” (Isaiah 9:2)

Alice Mizrahi

Israel

READ HER STORY

Alice is an Israeli believer in Yeshua. In the series she reflects on the woman known only as a “sinner” who was welcomed to Yeshua’s feet – and on the lies about worth and identity that keep us spiritually bent over. Her story speaks to anyone who has been defined by their past and wonders if there is still a place for them at the table.

Esther Fleece Allen

United States

Read her story

Esther is an author and speaker. She wrote the foreword to Sacred Encounters. Her books No More Faking Fine and Your New Name explore lament, grief and the identity God gives His children. In the series she shares how Jesus met her in her deepest sorrows, and why knowing your new name changes everything.

Amani mustafa

Egypt

READ HER STORY

Amani comes from Egypt and today shares the message of Yeshua every week of television with Muslim women around the world. She speaks about the God of all comfort who draws near in every trouble, and about the freedom Yeshua brings to those who are bound.

Safeeya comes from Kuwait and joins the panel throughout the series. She speaks about the barriers she faced in coming to Yeshua, the Son of David and the Jewish Messiah – and what she found on the other side.

Carine Bassili

Lebanon

READ HER STORY

Carine was raised in Lebanon – the region of ancient Tyre and Sidon, where Yeshua met the Canaanite woman. She shares the place of her own encounter with Yeshua, and how God worked in her heart to love Israel and the God of Israel.

Farnoosh

Iran

READ HER STORY

Farnoosh grew up in Iran, a country that would not naturally love the God of Israel. Like the Canaanite woman, her journey to Yeshua is a story of faith that breaks barriers, presses through obstacles, and refuses to let go until the blessing comes.
