A refuge for the neighbors.
Through Harvest Mountain, Houses for Healing serves the Middle East in the love of Jesus Christ — including Arab children on their way to life-saving heart surgery.
Obedience to the Father's call.
Directed by the Holy Spirit, Elizabeth came to Jordan in 2021 with her son, Derek, in obedience to the Heavenly Father's call to pray for, serve and love the people of the Middle East. She purchased land in the Gilead region overlooking the Jordan Valley and the Holy Land, and has poured everything she has into Harvest Mountain to bring the ministry to where it is today.
God has instructed her to prepare a place of refuge for "the neighbors." In the meantime, the land serves as:
- A house of prayer and strategic intercession for the Lord's priorities
- In collaboration with Houses for Healing, a transit station for Arab children with congenital heart conditions — and a parent — on their way to life-saving surgery in Israel
- Gardens and orchards that help feed and supplement the poor and needy in nearby communities
A home, a farm, and a house of prayer
The Home
A home with an attached downstairs apartment — about 90% complete — designed to house sick children and their mothers, and volunteers who come to serve and pray.
Olive Grove
About 140 young olive trees, meant to provide revenue as they mature so the ministry can become sustainable.
Orchard
Citrus and other fruit trees and grapevines.
Gardens
Medicinal and vegetable gardens — sage and thyme, chickpeas, onions, cucumbers and melons.
Current needs
- Safety. Please pray for protection over Elizabeth, Derek and everyone who serves at Harvest Mountain.
- Water. A well or cistern is an immediate need. After dry winters, the young olive trees and gardens depend on volunteers hand-watering every few weeks — a task well beyond what one family can carry.
- Completing the apartment. Finishing the downstairs apartment will allow sick children and their mothers to rest here on the way to surgery, with separate space for intercessors who come to pray and serve.
Houses for Healing, together with Elizabeth and Harvest Mountain, greatly values your prayers. If the Lord impresses on your heart to give, your gift will be received with great appreciation and thanksgiving.
