...To Fill In For Farmers Called Up To Fight Hamas.

==Ezekiel Strain, Yoseph Strain, John Plocher from Montana, and Luke Hutslar from Arkansas.==

A bit of a feel good story in the face of all the negativity in the news.

Since they arrived a couple of weeks ago, the group has worked in Judea and Samaria building security roads and volunteering on farms. It filled hundreds of boxes with peppers picked for a local farmer that had been called up to the reserves.

HaYovel is an organization started by Waller's father nearly twenty years ago that brings Christian Zionists to volunteer in agriculture, primarily at vineyards in Judea and Samaria.

"We bring help to the farmers," Waller said, explaining that its never been more important than right now. "For the last 20 years we've been helping, but right now after October 7 these guys are in a huge crisis."

The cowboys have gone viral in Israel, catching the attention of many Israelis who are thankful for American support.

"They're calling us 'The Cowboys,'" said Plocher. "It's funny because they have this certain image of what a cowboy is, you know, drinking, cussing, and whatever. All those aren't necessarily true."

The group has all been to Israel before to volunteer for Waller's group, and plans to stay for a few weeks. The cowboys said they are not deterred by Israel being at war because they realize how essential it is that agriculture and construction projects keep moving.

A friend of mine is a firefighter for AFD. He spent two weeks in Israel on duty filling in for their firefighters that were recalled to active duty.

That's awesome. It'd be great to see more Americans helping where they can either through donations, or physically volunteering.

Things may at times look bleak for Israel, but they will endure.
On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. Zechariah 12:3

Hopefully we haven't been involved in any such attempts, and I don't think we as a nation have yet.

I wonder how one volunteers, and if they pay for travel?
It only took me a year to figure out this place is nuts!
