News Update

The ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran is over, at least for the time being. Trump announced the end after Iran fired at several cargo ships and the U.S. responded with airstrikes hitting over 80 Iranian military targets.Iran responded with strikes of its own, launching drones and ballistic missiles at Bahrain and Kuwait. U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth cancelled his planned visit to Israel today. How this all will play out and how it will effect Israel is unclear. The ceasefire might be back on by the time you read this, or there might be all out war…or something in between. Stay tuned, and pray.
