BRANSON MO NEWS: JERUSALEM, Israel – Hundreds of Christians from around the world gathered in Jerusalem this week, together with Israeli Knesset members and Jewish leaders, to pray for the peace of Jerusalem at the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast. “I think about the fact that God is joining Jews and Christians together for such an event.
