Bryce and Eleanor Turner held an audience of over one hundred spell bound as they elaborated on their trip to Israel with a group of volunteers who sought to not only bring comfort to the suffering Israeli people but also very practical help. Most of Israel's tradesmen are currently on active duty so trade experience was a valuable commodity. The Israeli people were deeply touched by this expression of solidarity and many personally were given hope when some of the devastating consequences of October 7 were repaired. Bryce and Eleanor's talk was far ranging and often suspenseful, for example when Bryce described being caught in a bombing attack near the Gaza border. We are grateful they were able to carry such great goodwill on all our behalf to the Israeli people, especially the practical helps they were able to offer because of New Zealand people's generosity.

Some pictures shared below give an impression of the meeting and the good work C4I are doing. C4I is well worthy of support.
