Shabbat Aug 10, 2024

Shalom Mishpacha!

In the midst of all of the conflict in the world, the divisiveness of the political season, and all of the prayer and fasting taking place, many are feeling overwhelmed or even fatigued at this point in the summer. Let me encourage you, GOD HEARS OUR PRAYER AND HE IS MOVING! For instance, last weekend we joined with many other Messianic congregations and churches in prayer and fasting in regards to the escalation between Israel and Iran as the media and government agencies and even commercial airlines were was saying it was a matter of hours if not minutes before Iran was going to launch missiles! It didn’t happen, yes, it could very well happen in the next days, but I believe our prayers sowed confusion into the enemy camp! Keep it up Saints, you may not SEE the results or answers to your prayers with the naked eye or in a specific time frame, but know that as we pray, in accordance with God’s will, He will always answer!

Come on out to Or Chaim this Shabbat August 10th as we will be meeting at The Dwelling Place at 11am! Our address is 16800 W.9th Ave. Golden, 80401, and I will be sharing a message in our series on THE AWE OF GOD entitled Three Images. You know that there is an image of how others see us, and an image of how we want others to see us, and then there is WHO WE REALLY ARE. As you can imagine, our loving Father wants us to walk in our true identity, no pretense or hypocrisy, and in this way we are accurately reflecting Yeshua to a dark world. WE WILL NOT BE HAVING OUR ONEG FOLLOWING THE SERVICE, AS WE WILL BE HAVING HAVDALAH AT 5PM ON SATURDAY EVENING! Here are the instructions for this event, and remember ALL ARE INVITED AND IT WILL BE A LOT OF FUN AS WE CLOSE OUT THE SHABBAT!

Our next Havdalah will take place on Saturday, August 10, at 5:00 at the Westendorf Farm. PLEASE NOTE TIME CHANGE!

The address is 1029 S Bonnie Ln, Watkins, CO 80137.

Mary's number is 720-231-8505

Tom's number is 303-667-4257 - Corrected number

We will be serving chicken and buns, along with water, tea and lemonade. Coffee for those who wish to be up all night!

Please add to the above by bringing: perhaps another protein (a hot dish containing beef), salad, side dish, dessert, fruit tray, or whatever strikes your fancy. We will put it all together and have a wonderful time of fellowship and celebration for the close of the Sabbath. 

Please wear your everyday shoes so you can say hi to the chickens and our new goat, Jake (he likes kisses). Also, bring a light jacket as it may be cool in the evening!

Written directions: Travel east on I-70. Take the Watkins Exit 295 and head to the right (south). After a mile, you will see the left hand turn onto E. 6th Ave. Take that for one mile to the 4-way stop on Imboden Road. Turn right, go one mile to E. Alameda. Turn left there and follow that road 2 miles, where  it curves to the right onto E. Bonnie Lane.  It will be about 3/4 mile further. It's a white ranch with navy trim on the right side of the road. There's parking in front of the house on the circle or anywhere near the big red shop. 

Feel free to bring your flags and any musical instruments you might wish to add to the worship. David and Laura will provide our music for worship and dance. You might want to bring your lawn/camp chairs.
