The Bitan Family’s Story

The Bitan family has three generations living on their farm. After buying the land and moving there in the 1940s, they planted beautiful, vibrant flowers that were primarily sold to vendors in Europe.

The BDS Dried Up Their Land

The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, which started in the early 2000s, cut off the Bitan’s trades with Europe. The flowers once grown on the beautiful family farm were banned. There was no market for their crops. The once-lush land stood desolate and dry.

They Were Almost Forced to Move

Some might be of the opinion that they should move and find another way to make a living. After all, they have witnessed balloon bombs landing near their home, and they are no strangers to the whistling sounds of rockets fired near their fields.

But it isn’t that easy. This is not merely a random piece of land. It is their heritage, a connection to their hope, and it is their home. The Bitan family has longed to see their native land of Israel thrive. And their farm was fulfilling that dream only a few years ago.

Did They Lose Hope?

The BDS could’ve caused them to be disheartened and lose hope. For a moment, their future looked as dry and desperate as the land that was right outside their family home. But they chose not to lose hope.

This family, nearly bankrupt and searching for a miracle, still held tight to the promises of God and the hope of the Messiah.

Mr. Bitan explained to My Olive Tree’s founder, Curt Landry, on a cool October morning that it had been his father’s dream to be a part of the prophecy that would harvest pure olive oil to be used in the coming Third Temple’s great menorah.

A Bigger Plan Was about to Unfold

When we met with them and heard their story, we couldn’t believe how God would orchestrate restoration from something that seemed nearly lost. But nothing is beyond the reach of God’s sovereign hand.

We didn’t know how God’s restorative plan would be revealed, but we had faith. So, we stepped out in it and took action.

We were reminded of this verse…

• “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?”—Jeremiah 32:27

When we stood on one of their open fields near the Gaza Strip, the wind blew, and dust filled the air. The smell of dirt was unmistakable, but we detected a faint fragrance as if the aroma of flowers and olive trees met in the desert.

Seeing God’s Favor

The next thing we knew, we were working with the Bitan’s to fill their once flowery field into an olive grove! People from all over the world have stepped up and sponsored trees, allowing the Bitan’s to keep their family farm and await a harvest.

Hope was being restored!

Can you imagine what it would be like to wait nearly a lifetime, and then finally see God unfold a part of your dreams right before your eyes?

Those trees have ripened and have produced a harvest of oil. Now you can be one of the first to receive the oil produced by these very trees, trees that are fulfilling prophecy.

Don’t wait, there are only 200 bottles! Be a part of this fulfillment today!
