A court ruling penalizing the Israeli Messianic village of Yad Hashmonah for refusing to host a lesbian wedding has severely damaged the community's main source of income, but has also opened the door to be an even greater witness to the Israeli public.

"Our business is suffering badly. We are firing people and cutting every expense possible." But that's not the end of the story.

At the same time,  "God is really using this!"  Since the court decision, and the initial negative press coverage it spawned, spokeswoman Ayelet Ronen  has been interviewed by three newspapers, two radio programs, and Israel's leading morning TV news show.

"I have been flooded with calls from people wanting to know more about the situation, asking about our faith and offering moral support." This
new wave of positive coverage has afforded Ronen numerous opportunities to witness directly to Israelis.

God works in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform.
