As the battles raged
between Palestinian and
Israeli security forces in
September 1996, Terry
and Susan McIntosh, with
the help of their son Adam,
opened the Jesus House of
Prayer, a Christian chapel
in the city of ancient Jericho,
Palestine (West Bank, Israel).
As CEO and Pastor, Terry
managed to obtain permission
for Christian events that
Jericho's predominate Islamic
community had never seen.
He enjoyed both military and
police protection while
preaching the gospel to the
Islamic world of Jericho
and all of Palestine in spite of radical opposition.

Terry made an unprecedented appearance on Islamic television during Israel's military invasion
dubbed "Operation Defensive Shield" in April 2002 with a message of peace to both nations,
charging Israel to  turn around and "give life," and admonishing Palestine to follow Christ crucified
as the only hope for salvation.

The result has been a great move of God among the Palestinians with the help of faithful saints and
volunteers. Attendance at the Jesus House of Prayer grew to such large numbers that home groups
formed around Terry and his teachings about Jesus. The gospel continues to spread today as other
Christian ministries have also sprung up in the city.  Terry's ministry has been to turn the hearts
of the people  to God through Christ.

Terry's influence in the Islamic world defies all logic and contradicts many false teachings about
Palestinians in general, and God's plan for Israel. Terry turned all ministry responsibility over to
local ministers in 2007.

He continues to impact the Middle East via newspaper, TV, and other media outlets to include
hosting evangelical meetings while preaching Christ crucified on the cross for all people of all
nations.
