Shabbat May 1, 2021

Shalom Mishpacha!

In my greeting today, I’m using the term ‘Mishpacha’ purposely because it is important to understand the Hebrew term for family. The word refers to “family, household, kin, kindred, origin, species”. Along with so many other institutions in these days, the God-ordained reality and purpose of FAMILY is under incredible attack more than anything else! Yet, when we look at the Scriptures, it is the paramount covenant structure that God creates: Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness!” He goes on to say “it is not good for man to be alone" (levad in Hebrew), and I am convinced that the devil knows that truth oh so well and wants to destroy the God- breathed institution of family and we need say No to his schemes emphatically! Also, and this is so important for us to know, we in the body of Messiah, Jew and Gentile are real family, not just a bunch of individuals “doing” services together! This Shabbat May 1st, I will be continuing with the theme of becoming a habitation for the Holy One and knowing His times and purposes with a message entitled HERE COMES THE BRIDE! I know it is not real creative or even catchy or novel, but Abba wants us to understand who we are as the BRIDE of Messiah!

Following the morning service for those who want, we will be joining with others for an outreach at City Park in Denver! Jeremy Jacobs of Turn Ministries in Colorado Springs has a heart to reach the Jewish community in our area and it will be a great opportunity to meet some folks, share about Yeshua and dance for the glory of the Lord! We will be going out after the service, and all are invited! Here are some important upcoming events:

- SUNDAY MAY 2ND, 10AM-12NOON, MEN’S MEETING, HOME OF NATHAN BROWN: 13955 NIGHT OWL LANE, PARKER 80134

- THURSDAY MAY 6TH, 11AM-2PM NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER AT WEST STEPS OF THE STATE CAPITOL, DENVER

- SHABBAT AND SUNDAY MAY 15-16TH, THE RABBI’S SON BILL BULLOCK, OR CHAIM AND CASTLEWOOD CANYON CHURCH, GOLDEN AND FRANKTOWN

Millie and I want you to know that you are special to us and we are excited about the season we are now in as we endeavor together to “MOVE FORWARD” into His promises and purposes!

Blessings and Shalom!

Stewart and Millie
