single parenting effects

hi my name is cody archer and i'm the international director at revive israel and right now i am here in yad hashmona standing in the king david's stables and you may be asking what does revive israel have in connection with horses? well, this is something of a unique partnership that we've been developing over the last number of years and we

want to share with you some of the exciting things that god has been doing and how he's using nature and horses and leaders to impact families and children and especially families with single parents. and so we want to take a couple minutes and share with you some of the ways you are impacting the lives of young youth here in israel.

my name is ophir, and it was actually with my special needs child that we started to to get her some therapy and then in the summer my kids went, the other ones, went, two of them, went to the summer camp. it was really wonderful. because of the situation we went through with their father leaving them three-and-a-half years ago they have been going through quite a rough time and it's still there. there is still a lot

of pain but it really helps them building confidence. they're happy! i think the main thing is to take care of the fears that they have and every time every lesson they are more confident in that that they can get closer, that they can control the animal, and they feel more secure. when my son went through a hard time this morning

i said you know and the fact that we going today to go to the horses is the father's love. is that he takes care. so i just want to thank revive that they are there to just listen to god's heart for those children and to bless them and to let them know how much they are loved and cherished. my name is veronica klein. i have two children beautiful boys, sixteen and a half

and fourteen and a half. ariel who is fourteen and a half this summer suffered from a very deep depression. it was just something that i didn't know how to deal with. somebody told me you know there is these stables maybe if he will go to ride on the horses. and he came and it totally changed his life. he said to me, " mom i wake up every

morning and i have something to wake up for." this has been a beautiful change in his life and for so many children. so i am very thankful. very, very, thankful for revive israel. that they give because without their help we would not be able to pay for this is it something that is very expensive and it is something that it changes the life of

the children in ways that nothing else can do. so i am very thankful, thank you. my name is anthony lipschitz i have been involved with horses for over 70 years. we find that the horse riding has had a major effect on them and basically this is what we are all about. we want to help people and we are very thankful that revive israel is giving us this opportunity.

first of all to work with them and they are such lovely people and they also have the children's best wishes at heart and it fits in exactly with our outlook on life. so isn't that amazing how your generous financial partnership is impacting these single-parent families and children here in the land of israel. we want to say thank you from all of our

hearts for joining with us. in 2016 we supported eleven children to go through these courses and already for 2017 we've committed to 40 children. that's a huge jump forward and that's going to cost around 40,000 us dollars and so we want to invite you would you join us over this next year in this important project in supporting single-parent

families and their children to be encouraged and strengthened and this is

a very practical way to strengthen the messianic body here in israel. so we love you so much and thank you in advance for joining with us this next year.
