The Sound of Revival from Jerusalem: Jesus Unites Jews and Arabs in SOLU’s Down Under Tour
For the past two years, news from Israel has been dominated by reports of war and devastation. Yet, God has been on the move. In recent years, many young Israelis have come to faith in Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah. This remarkable revival has inspired a wave of new worship music, blessing believers worldwide.
Inspired by the biblical significance of seeing Jewish people in Israel come to faith in Jesus, and the spiritual revival starting to take place there, we at Celebrate Messiah feel called to bring a touch of this blessing to Australia.
Celebrate Messiah are thrilled to announce that in November this year, we will be bringing SOLU, a vibrant and dynamic young worship band from Israel, on their first tour of Australia to bless the body of Messiah on our shores.
SOLU means “build up” in Hebrew and comes from Isaiah 62:10; “Go through, go through the gates. Clear the way for the people! Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones. Lift up a banner over the peoples.” (Isaiah 62:10, TLV)
SOLU, the Israeli worship band, believe their mandate from the Lord is to do their part in “preparing the way for revival and Yeshua’s return”. We believe that SOLU will bless believers in Australia with the richness and vibrance of the fresh anointing they bring from Israel.
SOLU’s journey began in Jerusalem at Succat Hallel, a 24/7 house of prayer. There, spiritually hungry teenagers gathered weekly to worship and cry out to God. From these humble beginnings, their ministry expanded from prayer rooms to the streets of Jerusalem and is now spreading to nations worldwide.
Having toured the USA for the last few years, they have also played in Europe, South Africa and are coming to Australia for their first time. SOLU are a band who bring a depth to their worship. Their music and ministry are lively and engaging, full of life and joy, paving a highway to prepare the way of the Lord.
A sign of the unity and peace only Jesus can bring
Nizar Francis will be joining SOLU for their Down Under Tour 2025, beginning 21 November, starting in Sydney and continuing down to Melbourne. A Christian Arab Israeli from Haifa, Nizar, will bring a powerful dimension to the worship by singing SOLU songs in Arabic alongside the Hebrew and English verses.
Once a well-known singer in Israel, Nizar experienced deep emptiness despite his success until he encountered the Lord in 2005, and his life was radically transformed. In 2014, he fully devoted his life to serving Jesus, embracing his calling to praise God through worship and to be a bridge between Jews and Arabs—proclaiming that true peace is only found in and through Jesus Christ.
Help change the narrative in Australia
For too long, media narratives have portrayed Israelis in a negative light. Through SOLU, we want to share the true heart of Israeli believers with the church in Australia, to give a glimpse of what the future of Israel can look like as the number of Israelis, both Jews and Arabs, believing in Jesus continues to increase.
The tour is free for all to attend, but registration is essential.

Thirty Muslims living in the West have made their intentions crystal clear. They've announced their plans to dominate your country, replace your values, and transform your way of life — all on camera, in their own words. They're not hiding their Islamic agenda.

Hallelujah – wonderful news! Blessed to be a blessing! May they bring revival to our churches and to set the Messianic believers on fire for Jesus!
It’s wonderful that SOLU are coming to bring a blessing to this Great Southland of the Holy Spirit, but I’m very disappointed that they won’t be visiting Adelaide, South Australia! Adelaide is known as “The City of Churches!” I feel that prophetically, it is “The City of the Church!” Nevertheless, may you have a blessed trip to our wonderful land down under, and I’m sure that we, in turn, will bless you!
