We had the privilege of serving families at the Healing Oasis, a weeklong retreat for those whose husbands were called up to serve during the war. These families arrived carrying deep weariness and a real need for rest, comfort, and restoration.Alongside a devoted team of counselors and intercessors, we were honored to lead the children’s program and to support parents through a workshop on parenting in challenging times, along with personal consultations.Set in a peaceful country hotel outside Jerusalem, the retreat created space for parents to receive one-on-one counseling and to enjoy evenings of connection, care, and simple moments of joy. At the same time, children were immersed in a play-filled, enriching program that strengthened emotional awareness and relational skills.It became a week marked by renewal and quiet joy, where families found space to breathe, be strengthened, and take gentle steps toward healing together.
