Annual Night To Honor Israel at The Colonnade set for Nov. 10
Christians United for Israel (CUFI), along with churches in North Georgia and the Greater Chattanooga area, invite the community to a “Night to Honor Israel” Thursday, Nov. 10, at 7 p.m. at The Colonnade, 264 Catoosa Circle, in Ringgold, Ga.
Open to the public, the purpose of the free event is to show solidarity between Jewish people and Christians in their support of Israel. A complimentary reception will follow and all are welcome regardless of religion or denomination.

Stakelbeck is a sought after authority on Middle East, terrorism and radical Islam. He is a frequent guest on Fox News. He has written three books on terrorism, his latest entitled “ISIS Exposed: Beheadings, Slavery and the Hellish Reality of Radical Islam,” which will be on sale during a book signing at the event.
Other speakers include the Consul General from Israel to Southeastern United States, Judith VarnaiShorer; Pastor Lyndon Allen, Central Regional Coordinator, Christians United for Israel and Woodmont Bible Church in Nashville, as well as Georgia State Senator Jeff Mullis.
Musical presentations will be given by Shiran Amir, Israeli Cultural Emissary with the Jewish Federation of Greater Chattanooga, the Lee University Symphonic Band conducted by Mark Bailey, and Melissa Stamper from Woodmont Bible Church in Nashville, Tenn.
The ROTC from Ringgold High School will act as Color Guard. Scouts from the Cherokee Area Council Boy Scouts of America will serve as parking attendants and ushers. Pastor Bret Yaeger, Temple Baptist Church in Dalton, Ga., will serve as the master of ceremonies. The planning committee for the local CUFI area consists of members from Chattanooga and North Georgia and includes both Christian and Jewish people.
