How God Shapes Lives
Curt Landry, being conceived and born out of wedlock in 1955, had biological parents who were faced with some tough decisions. Their families prohibited them from marrying, so they thought their only option was abortion.
As his parents researched this option, Curt’s father felt his heartstrings being pulled. He went to the priest on his Air Force base to help him sort out his convictions. The priest told him about an orphanage in Los Angeles, California, where the baby could be delivered and hopefully adopted by a loving family.
Curt Landry lived in this orphanage for the first 6 months of his life. At 6 months, he was adopted by the Landry family and grew up in a loving home. Throughout his life, he had his share of challenges but understood the significance of loving, nurturing, and guiding parents. He realized how much parents shape a child’s life and, later, had a heart of compassion for those with similar beginnings but not necessarily the same upbringing.
He learned the power of God’s redemption through Jesus Christ and how soul wounds can actually be healed.
As Curt grew, the Lord used his experience to shape his heart to be used for the Kingdom, specifically in Israel. Curt Landry’s childhood, life, and encounter with God are the foundation for why he chooses to care for…
- IDF soldiers
- Holocaust survivors
- Young men and women in Safe Houses
- Ukrainian orphans
… and many more, month after month and year after year.
Supporters, You Have a Story Too!
While your life experiences aren’t exactly like Curt Landry’s, you too have a story as to why you care deeply about the people of Israel and how God has shaped your heart and life. It is no accident you have supported and partnered with Curt Landry Ministries to help minister to, love, and support those in Israel.
Your story has created a path for others, blessing those who need to see, hear, and know the love of the Father. Check out how your support has blessed many in Israel.
Here’s What You’ve Done in the Past 3 Months…
Israel Defense Forces | IDF
In May, Israel celebrated their Independence Day. To bless the soldiers on this special day, your support allowed us to hand out thousands of Reclaiming Our Forgotten Heritage books, written in Hebrew, to soldiers in the Jordan Valley.
Both male and female soldiers received your gift just in time for the holiday break. They were grateful to receive and eager to read Curt Landry’s story during some much-needed downtime over the break.
A few days after the distribution of Reclaiming Our Forgotten Heritage, we received an update from soldiers who had visited the Safe Haven in Beit She’an, Israel.
Your continued support helps keep this home away from home, a place where IDF soldiers can rest, relax, and be restored. They face many physical, emotional, and mental challenges protecting Israel’s borders, so they desperately need a place they can stay, enjoy hot meals and fellowship, do laundry, and recharge.
You have provided, and continue to provide, month after month. Your support helps to keep the facilities clean, bathrooms and laundry rooms filled with necessary items, and refrigerators and cabinets fully stocked with food.
These soldiers say, “Toda raba!”
Holocaust Survivors
As a faithful supporter and partner of Curt Landry Ministries, you’ve provided care for Holocaust survivors month after month.
Your support feeds nearly 400 Holocaust survivors each week for Shabbat and each annual feast meal.
Your support also allows us to provide updates to apartments, fans, heaters, appliances, and special gifts for the feasts.
Without your support, we could never bring smiles and comfort to these precious lives.
Thank you for your faithfulness!
Ukraine Orphan Project
As you know, this year has brought turmoil and sadness to those in Ukraine and worldwide. Remarkably, some Ukrainians could find refuge in Israel, and many of those refugees were children. Throughout this year, you have stepped up and provided…
- Food
- Clothing
- School items
- Personal care items
… for those living in Israel.
We are humbled by your generosity and overwhelmed by your heart of compassion.
We quickly found out the needs continue to grow, specifically for Ukrainian orphans. These children need all the items listed above as they grow and start a new life in Israel. Your support has allowed us to add in the purchase of backpacks filled with school supplies. We also had a special Shabbat celebration for them as we distributed the backpacks.
Recently delivered items include blankets, bedding, and mattresses. This all happened because of you.
You’ve put a smile on these sweet faces…
Many of you also partnered with us to send 70 Ukrainian orphans to summer camp this month to help prepare them for the upcoming school year starting September 1, 2022.
Due to the emotional and psychological scars many of these children experienced due to losing parents, siblings, and homes, a Summer Camp Program was developed to help these orphans…
- Receive psychological support from professionals
- Learn the Hebrew language
- Integrate into and understand the local culture
- Make friends
- Have structure
This summer camp is underway and these children are receiving hope, help, and restoration. They are safe and protected and feel secure for the first time in months.
As Your Story Continues…
As your story continues, may the God of peace continue to bless you as you stand with and bless Israel. He is a God who keeps His covenant promises. Let Genesis 12:3 be a reminder to you of God’s faithfulness as you bless Israel in the months and years to come.
“I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”–Genesis 12:3
