Alabama Evangelicals Pledge To Protect Threatened Jewish Center
“Fear thou not, for I am with thee, be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I strengthen thee, yea, I help thee; yea, I uphold thee with My victorious right hand.” Isaiah 41:10 (The Israel Bible™)
Several Evangelical ministries in Alabama have joined together in an effort to raise $100,000 to protect the Levite Jewish Community Center (JCC) in Birmingham. The money will go towards improving security at the JCC that has been the target of four bomb threats recently. Each bomb threat results in evacuating the building and a search of the building. Security upgrades are estimated to cost approximately $1 million.
The ministries involved so far include Scott Dawson Evangelistic Association, The Center for Executive Leadership, Young Business Leaders, Lifework Leadership, JH Ranch, Alliance Ministries, and the National Christian Foundation of Alabama. Several churches have pledged $5,000 to $10,000 towards the effort.
“We want to help in any way we can,” Scott Dawson, founder of Scott Dawson Evangelistic Association, told AL.com. “It just seems like the right thing to do. I think we can raise $100,000. I’m trying to get pastors to take up an offering to help them.”
