Shalom Family!

Here we are in “Day Whatever” of our national and world-wide Covid-19 shutdown! Actually it’s not a bad day to be locked in as we have about 6 inches of snow (and still counting) falling outside. Millie and I have developed our devotional and prayer time in our home as I'm sure you all have, with our focus being daily “Lord, what is on Your heart?” and proceeding from that point. We believe strongly that at this season between Pesach and Shavuot while Counting the Omer that God is moving in a big way and that His bride is being “stirred” in such a way that we can’t help but to “fix our eyes on Yeshua the initiator and perfecter of our faith” for Heaven’s solutions! We continue to pray Psalm 91 over all of you and as we have contacted folks in the last weeks, everyone seems to be doing well and looking forward to getting back together again. Our services on line are reaching literally all over the world and hopefully have been a blessing to many! 

This Shabbat, April 18th, we will of course be on FaceBook as well as Zoom and we invite you to join with us shortly before 10:30am and be part of our service. 

This week I will be sharing a timely message on “Counting The Omer”, and how significant it is during this season. It is so important at this extraordinary time to have a sense of urgency in our prayer not only for those who we know are sick, but also for those who have lost their livelihood and most urgently those who do not yet know Yeshuah as their eternal Hope! Both Millie and I worked in the employment and training field for many years before we were called into full-time ministry. We tried to help people find work to feed their families in the midst of recessions, inflation and government cut-backs and in those years we never witnessed such displacement as we have seen in the last month! Over 20 million have lost jobs in the last several weeks, that is insane! Yet, we know God’s promises are “Yes and Amen”, and that His purposes are being fulfilled in the earth today. We have been reading from the Book of Acts lately and are “blown away” at the level of faith the early believers walked in, and we know and are convinced that we have the same growing faith as they had 2000 years ago if we will only walk it out in the power of the RUACH HaKodesh and obedience to the Spirit of Torah in our lives with the signs and wonders following. 

We want to encourage you that if you have a need of anything, a prayer request, or just need to talk with someone to call one of our leadership team and let us know how you are doing. We as elders and deacons are called to serve the body, teach the word, pray for the sick, and to watch over God’s flock. This is a time to reach out to each other and encourage one another and BE the family that HE has called us to be!

Thank you so much to those who gave to the House of Refuge Church and Orphanage in MLOLONGO Kenya! Pastor Sammy, Becky and the children were so blessed at the miracle of generosity that helped them with food, water, and electricity...the basic necessities of life. Hopefully they will join us on the zoom call and everyone will be able to meet part of our Kenya family.  They thank you from the depths of their hearts.

Shalom and Blessings,
Stewart and Millie
