AUGUSTA, GA – Unprecedented attendance at “An Evening for Israel” rally in Augusta, Georgia Monday evening had organizers scrambling for seating to accommodate Christians and Jews who turned out to express support for the nation of Israel. The “Evening for Israel” rally, the fifth in a series being held across the Southeastern United States by international Christian broadcasters Earl Cox and Ben Kinchlow, brought together the Jewish and Christian communities to hear the latest news from the Holy Land. The event attracted a long list of dignitaries to include representation from the Consul General of Israel for the Southeast, local area pastors and rabbis and numerous local civic and business leaders. A proclamation from the Governor of Georgia was read which declared Georgia’s support for Israel. A highlight of the event was a live telephone hook-up with Spokesperson for the nation of Israel, Daniel Seaman. The Augusta event was co-sponsored by the Jewish Federation and Whole Life Ministries. The next rally is scheduled for Thursday evening, July 20th in Atlanta, Georgia where reports indicate another sold out crowd is expected. Joining Cox and Kinchlow will be Dr. Yossi Olmert, brother of Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.
