Shabbat July 17, 2021
Shalom Mishpacha!
How is it possible for Paul (Rav Shaul) to declare “Rejoice in the Lord always - again I will say, rejoice!”, sitting in a dank, dark and smelly prison probably in Rome? Because he knew something (Someone) that we need to know: this journey we are on in a fallen world is not our ultimate goal, but being with Yeshua and experiencing the presence of God is the most glorious thing anyone could experience! It’s not about denying the insanity and evil that is so ‘in our face’ day after day, it is about putting things in a Kingdom perspective and CHOOSING to rejoice in the midst of whatever is happening because we have an amazing hope that is not of this world. You may have received a jolting diagnosis, a foreclosure notice or a betrayal from a best friend, but in that pain and disappointment choose to run into the arms of Yeshua our Messiah and rejoice in Him!
This Shabbat July 17th we will be welcoming Dr. Dan and Patty Juster to Or Chaim. Dan is an internationally known author of such classic as JEWISH ROOTS; RELATIONAL LEADERSHIP and THE IRREVOCABLE CALLING, and has been involved in the Messianic movement since 1972. They live in Jerusalem most of the year and he is part of the Apostolic leadership team for Tikkun International and in the past has served as President of the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations (UMJC). He will be sharing a fresh Word of what Father is doing today and how we are to align with His purposes. All are invited to this special service, and we will be having an informal Q&A “roundtable” time with Dan following the service at 1pm. We will provide a light lunch, so feel free to join with us and bring a snack and something to drink!
The Colorado Messianic Women’s Fellowship will be holding it’s annual retreat next weekend July 24-26, so please be in prayer for this amazing event. It is full, but if you feel you are to be part of this and haven’t signed up, see Millie immediately! This is a busy time as folks are camping and traveling and visiting family, but we want to encourage you to pray with urgency, be in the Word of God, and continue to fellowship with the ‘Mishpacha’ of God faithfully!
Blessings and Shabbat Shalom!
Stewart and Millie
