After a difficult and disrupted start to the year, the Israel work is gathering momentum again. Andy and Carla are now traveling widely across the land, visiting churches, rehabs, outreach points, and book ministries from Beersheva to Nazareth. Even after the challenges of war, new doors are opening for Derek Prince resources to reach people in very practical and timely ways.
A New Season of Movement
Earlier in the year, war and travel restrictions slowed many plans. But in recent months, Andy & Carla have been able to move more freely again.
They have recently visited:
- Beersheva several times
- Nazareth twice
- Three churches
- Two rehabs
- A Bible House bookshop/outreach
This shows a clear shift from disruption toward renewed movement and relationship-building across the land.
4,230 Books Distributed So Far
So far in 2026, approximately 4,230 Derek Prince books have been distributed.
Large quantities went to:
- The Bat Zion Conference
- Churches and ministries in Nazareth
- Outreach centers, rehabs, and book ministries
These books are not simply being handed out randomly. They are going into places where leaders are actively asking for them and using them for discipleship, aid packages, Bible studies, and pastoral care.
Stories From the Field
Real needs are being met across Israel as these materials reach people on the ground.
Nazareth: Hope for the Grieving
One of the strongest recent moments came in Nazareth, where a church requested 1,000 Arabic copies of Hope Beyond Grief. They wanted to include the books in aid packages for people grieving loved ones lost in the war.
We were able to provide 700 copies, which emptied the current Arabic stock of that title.
Beersheva: Books for Rehab and Outreach
At a women’s rehab, Andy & Carla introduced Derek’s Self-Study Bible Course. The ministry took copies to begin a Bible study with the women there.
They also connected with the Bible House in Beersheva, where the remaining Spanish Derek Prince books were requested and fully distributed.
Stock, Printing, and Practical Logistics
Overall, the current book stock is still healthy, with good quantities available in most languages. However, a few clear shortages have emerged:
- Arabic: Hope Beyond Grief is now out of stock
- English: Our Debt to Israel is out of stock
- Spanish: remaining stock has now been fully distributed
At the same time, preparations are moving forward for new Russian and Hebrew print runs, which are especially important as demand grows.
Vehicle Purchase: Increasing Distribution Capacity
A major practical step is also in progress: an additional vehicle dedicated to the DPM book distribution and First Fruits work. Vehicle availability had become a real limitation at times.
CFI has now sourced and registered a suitable vehicle in Christian Friends of Israel’s name, with insurance and DPM’s agreed funding share still being finalized. Once complete, this will give Andy & Carla much greater flexibility to visit churches, ministries, rehabs, and outreach points across Israel. This is more than a logistical upgrade. It directly strengthens our ability to respond quickly when doors open.
Looking Ahead
Upcoming opportunities include:
- A planned DPM table at the Festival of Life, 30th of September to 3rd of October
- Exploring possible Derek Prince Ministries representation at the ICEJ Feast of Tabernacles
- Continued visits to churches, rehabs, and outreach ministries across the land
Prayer Points
Please pray for:
- Protection and wisdom for Andy & Carla as they travel
- Open doors for Derek Prince resources across Israel
- Effective distribution into churches, rehabs, and aid projects
- Provision for printing, vehicle costs, and the project through 2026
- Comfort and healing for those grieving losses from the war
