Below is an Ancient Scroll called the Meggilat
Esther,
read during the holiday of
Purim from the Book of Ruth.
"And Who Knows But That You Have Come
To Your Royal Position,
For Such a Time As This?
Esther 4:14
To All you Royal Ones of Messiah,
We are excited to open this prayer letter with the joy
of our salvation as we serve Him on the front line! We are always
reminded of the warfare that we are battling. This warfare consists of
Israel's daily existence, the work of Abundant Bread of Salvation and it's
team, the continuous prayers and financial support needed from you and our
great heart's desire to see the eternal hope and salvation of our Jewish
people. The Book of Esther and the holiday of Purim is a great
example of many of the above reminders. We, as a ministry, literally take
this verse, Esther 4:14, to heart each time we walk in or out of our offices
to serve our poor and needy people and Holocaust survivors. Happy
Purim and thank you for standing with us!
First of all, the most exciting news and praise report:
since writing last month's prayer letter, we have seen four more of our
Jewish people come into the Kingdom, even as recently as last week. A
young, single mother prayed with us to accept her Messiah as Saviour!
Halleluyah! She has a little boy with severe developmental challenges
that we assist however we can. Please keep all these new believers in your
prayers. Praise God for this amazing fruit!
The above news happened in our distribution center in Netanya
where we continue to give away over 400 packets of food filled with 25
products. Weekly, we see the most amazing things happen. First of
all, with smiles and joy, we are thankful to just to be able to receive such
simple food packets and give them away in a manner that manifests the
clear and tangible love of God that brings hope, smiles and many times,
requests for prayer that bring them the joy of their eternal salvation.
It is not always easy to manifest the fruits of the spirit when people are
desperate, depressed, rude, pushy, and tell us we owe them! So, yes, the joy
of the Lord is our strength and this is where your prayers help incredibly!
Praise Adonai!
We continue our weekly soup kitchen, serving at least 40
people a rich, home-cooked, five course, sit down meal. These delicious
meals are served by our volunteer team with the greatest love of all talked
about in 1 Corinthians 13, "and the greatest of these is LOVE".
Many times we have music and the people jump out of their seats and dance in exuberant
joy, forgetting about all their problems. We praise our God for this
continual opportunity to comfort our people in the most practical ways
with food for the body and food for the soul. Know that you are investing
in a work that is priceless and eternal. This is only made possible because
of every sacrificial prayer and gift given by you! Thank you - Todah Robah!
Abundant Bread of Salvation, was honored again by an
employee of the City of Netanya that often volunteers with us. This
week in my office, I was given a very special certificate and gold
medallion. This Certificate was given through the highest State of
Israel's Security Office to honor the practical work of our hands in what we
do to help part of the 1,500,000 elderly Jewish Veterans that fought against
the German Nazis during the Second World War, (1939-1945). With
tears, I am humbled as I give glory to our Messiah and I'm so honored to
serve Him, the Nation of Israel and the Jewish people, "for such a time
as this!" Glory, Glory Glory!
Again, we thank you for you prayers, financial support and "who
knows that you also may have come to your royal position?"
