Shabbat Shalom!

Have you noticed that every time you make a commitment to spend more time in God’s presence, or decide to give a financial gift, or restore a broken relationship you run into opposition or discouragement? Well, at those times we need to realize we are not alone and that we can find much in the Scripture to help us in those times! The Patriarchs, the Prophets, King David, the Apostles and Yeshua all went through those times and give us examples of how to overcome. I love what Rav Shaul says in Romans 8:37, “NO, IN ALL THESE THINGS WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS THROUGH HIM WHO LOVED US.” I know as I have talked with many of you over the last few weeks that there has been much sickness, financial setbacks and family issues and I want to encourage you to make it a point to carve out some time during the day, to just sit with The Lord and wait patiently in His presence. Let Him pour His rest and grace and Shalom into you, and you will be refreshed and what seemed impossible a few days earlier, you will experience incredible breakthrough!

Come out to Or Chaim Congregation this Shabbat, March 8th, and join with us as we worship our wonderful King and awesome provider! Our service begins at 11am and our address is 16800 W.9th Ave Golden, 80401. I will be continuing on the theme of Intimacy With God, with a very timely message entitled (a blast from my “60’s past!) “Listen, do you want to know a secret?”, as we explore how God desires friendship with us and He loves to reveal secrets to those who stay faithful to Him! Stay for fellowship after the service as we have our potluck Oneg and have great conversations around the table! Bring a dish to share!

In just a few weeks we will be entering into the Passover season! We have been invited to join with The Dwelling Place for their Seder and I will be helping lead this. Below is the information for this very special Feast! Also, I will be leading a Passover Seder on Sunday April 13th at Castlewood Canyon Church in Franktown! Please sign up for these Seders as space is limited in both places. We will keep you updated on any other Seders that will be taking as we hear about them.
