It's been a year and a half since the unthinkable. The attempted murder of an innocent 15 year-old Messianic Jewish boy in Ariel, Israel. He and his family are followers of Yeshua (Jesus) the Jewish Messiah. After a year and a half of excruciating rehabilitation, 12 operations with at least four more to go, spiritual, mental and emotional recovery, Ami and his family have received another miracle.

A suspect has been arrested! The suspect, Yakov “Jack” Teitel of Shvut Rachel in the Shomron in Israel is not only guilty of the attempted murder of the Ortiz family, but of a string of murders and bombings which have occurred over the last 12 years since 1997. The police are trying to connect Teitel to other murders as well, including the murder of two policemen in the Jordan Valley eight months ago. This has caused much controversy in Israel over the failure of the security services to have apprehended this criminal sooner. In addition, another suspect has been apprehended on the suspicion that he is Teitel’s accomplice.

A lengthy and much publicized court battle is set to ensue- the family needs much prayer and support in order to be able to see the battle through to the end, and to insure a sentence that is equal to the crime committed against the Ortiz family and others.

Please stand with us in prayer that this case will be solved and the terrorists of this inhumane crime will be brought to justice. There are many ways you can get involved today. Find out more here.
