Matthew names five women in his genealogy of Jesus: three widowed women, a prostitute and a young, unwed mother. These women were miraculously used to bring the promised Messiah. The history of our work in Be’er Sheva is also a miracle.
This year, we saved over 500 babies from abortion. The Operation Moses Project has served over 6,000 babies! You have had a major part in saving these children from abortion through your generous gifts to Be’ad Chaim.
Our God is our refuge and as we serve Him, we become a refuge for those around us, a shelter from the pains of life. The women who come to our centers are often in deep distress—troubled by an unwanted pregnancy, needy, and confused.
The mothers whom we serve are no strangers to trauma and difficult situations. Beyond the long war in Gaza and the destruction from missile bombardments of the past twelve days, these women have suffered fear from unplanned pregnancies, fear from depleted bank accounts, fear from the rejection of partners,
On April 30th, Israel’s Memorial Day, and May 1st, Israeli Independence Day, massive brushfires raged on the western outskirts of Jerusalem, destroying 2,471 acres of land. It took one hundred fire units and over twenty hours to bring the fire under control.
When a bull or a sheep or a goat is born, it shall be seven days with its mother; and from the eighth day and thereafter it shall be accepted as an offering made by fire to the LORD, a cow or ewe, do not kill both her and her young on the same day.
A week ago there was a huge fire near the Gardens of Life. The wind was very strong but God Almighty protected the Gardens from all harm.
Joy can be a BIG SURPRISE. Our Passover and Resurrection Day (Easter) celebrations this past month remind us that we serve the God of the miraculous. When the people of Israel panicked, assuming that they were trapped between the Red Sea and the Egyptian army, the parting of the Red Sea was a joyous surprise!
The poor are those who are perhaps weak in physical strength or resources, but even more so, those who are helpless, despondent, broken hearted, and scorned. Such people are often avoided and seen as a burden, but true kindness will consider the plight of the needy and earnestly extend a helping hand of love.
Chad Holland interviews Sandy Shoshani about Be'ad Chaim - Israel Prolife
Paul had suffered many afflictions and pain. He had been imprisoned before and was freed miraculously. This time, he was scourged and suffering – yet, the Lord didn’t release him, rather personally visited him.
That wonderful word CHESED, appears 246 times in the Old Testament – can hardly be translated into English because of its vast semantic range, so translators had to create a combined word – Loving kindness. There is no word like CHESED – God’s mercy, love, kindness, abundance, undeserving goodness, and more.

Reading the account of the story of Hagar and Ishmael, a mother and child cast away by Abraham and Sarah and wandering in the wilderness of Beer Sheva, it is striking to note that God heard the murmuring, the unuttered prayers of the suffering child. God hears the cries of the children.
Interview by Ernst Boogert with Sandy Shoshani
On February 5, leaders, pastors, and ministry heads from across Israel gathered in Netanya for a special evening organized by the ministry Be’ad Chaim.
A significant percent of the women who come to us have experienced an abortion that caused them deep sorrow and regret.
As we begin 2025, we look back at the sadness of the past year of war mixed with the joy of a baby boom in Israel and Be’ad Chaim. In 2024, over five hundred babies were born to our Be’ad Chaim family! We are currently encouraging over one hundred pregnant women.
Often, women who come to us in crisis pregnancy feel that they have no room in their hearts for a baby, but our caring counselors help women find space in their hearts for a child.
Sitting in my office, I often hear the sweet sound of a baby cooing. Knowing that we have had a role in bringing this little one into the world is a soothing balm in the midst of the war.
