Kathy Coombs Returns

Kathy grew up in a Roman Catholic household. Although she heard about God and Jesus, she had no idea if they were real.

That was about to change. On May 15th, 1979, her father suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. He was only 51 years old, and she was just 23. Devastated by his death, she began to search for God with all her heart, and she found Him.

Kathy gave her life to Jesus on March 31st, 1980, which happened to be the eve of Passover! Fast forward two years, and she was attending a Pentecostal church where a pastor from Israel came to speak.

His message was “Our Debt to the Jew.” While he was speaking, the power of the Holy Spirit came upon her, and she heard the Lord say to her, “I have called you to the Jew first.” At that very moment, Yeshua birthed a love for His people in her.

Since then, He has opened many effectual doors for Kathy to witness to Jewish people.

She visited Israel in 1988 and hopes to go back again one day. Kathy can truly testify that if you bless the Jew, you will be blessed.

Garry Seligman Interview

Garry had a typical secular Jewish upbringing.  He attended Sunday school at a reformed congregation in the northeast, and had a couple years of Hebrew school but no bar mitzvah.   He stopped going to temple altogether at age 25, and didn’t go again until 33 years later, when an evangelical friend talked him into attending an Erev Shabbat service at a nearby Messianic congregation.  At that service, Garry received the invitation to know his  Messiah, and accepted.  That was the beginning of his spiritual journey, and according to Garry, “the adventure continues today…”
