Shalom Mishpacha!

Unbelievably, we are half way through this month already! We just want to inform everyone that this coming Shabbat, January 18th, will be a special celebration at Or Chaim Congregation! It has been 9 years since we had our first meeting as a congregation, yes, January 16th 2016,  was our very first gathering on “the mountain” (Gateway on Mt. Zion Church). Wow, what a journey it has been! Many of you were with us on that wonderful day, some have moved away and sadly (for us anyway), some have received their ultimate reward in glory. Millie and I are so thankful to The Lord, for His faithfulness and love toward our Congregation over the years! It has not been easy at times, and believe it or not, there were times that I questioned my calling, and even my sanity! Ha! However, even as the name “Or Chaim” (Light of Life) implies, we have been faithful in declaring that HE is THE LIGHT OF LIFE in us, through us and into Colorado and the nations from Our Congregation in Golden, Colorado! We will have a time where Millie and I “tell the story” of our coming to be as a Congregation, share the vision, “A Place For His Presence”, and look forward to what God has for us in 2025 and beyond! We will also show a video recapping some of the wonderful memories we have at Or Chaim!

We really want to encourage you to come on out this Shabbat and worship and exalt Yeshua with us!! We meet at 11am at The Dwelling Place, 16800 W.9th Ave Golden, 80401. If you have ever been a part of our Congregation and you are able, come on out and celebrate with us! I know the weather forecast is for cold temperatures this weekend, but we will certainly be warm inside! Our dear friend Lynne McDowell will be leading worship with us. She of course was with us for several years and was with us as we started Or Chaim! We will have a fellowship time after the service, so bring a dish to share and come out and enjoy with us! 

So, tell your friends and invite them to our Shabbat service this week! We so look forward to seeing you and celebrating and worshipping together!

Shalom and Blessings,

Stewart and Millie
