The original Yad HaShmona cooperative settlement was founded by eight Christian volunteers who arrived from Finland to pursue their Biblical beliefs and help the Jewish people to establish themselves in their old new homeland. In the course of time the original settlers were joined by local Israelis who shared the same belief in the New as well as the Old Testament
