Newsletter August - September 2018

August - September 2018 Shalom, supporters and prayer partners, We are delighted to say that, as you receive this letter, I am finishing the most amazing, short speaking trip in the USA that I've titled, "The Faith Tour."  Why?  Because there are so many amazing dynamics that have happened to make this ministry trip come to be!  Now, as I write this letter while I'm on my trip, I really realize why I've called it The Faith Tour. A couple of divine highlights: Our God is so amazing!  Out of all the people or groups that invited me to come and speak about the work of Abundant Bread of Salvation, the first one was a group of 20-30 widows! How about that?  Read this very carefully!  Just as amazing, the woman that leads this widow's support group of believers is Jewish!  Not only that, her mother is the daughter of a Holocaust survivor.  My friends, what are the chances of this?  Not only this, but both the widow's group and the Holocaust survivor mother were the first ones to financially adopt a Holocaust survivor.  This is very significant!  We still have many survivors that need adopting?Please email us for details on how you or your congregation can do this.  Please, they are depending on you! Click HERE, to Adopt a survivor today! More significant news from my Faith Tour: My mother's Jewish family history began in Cleveland, Ohio and the second state I toured was Ohio.  Besides speaking with my mother, I also did research on the history of my meeting with Rabbi Hillel!.  My Jewish roots and found amazing information which led me in the first couple of hours of landing in the Cleveland airport to the Jewish cemetery and tombstone of my mother's Rabbi, Abba Hillel Silver.  He was a great Zionist and helped to establish and sign Israel's Declaration of Independence!  Also, in this same cemetery, was the son of my mother's grandfather.  Thirty minutes later, I was in the home of this great grandfather's son, David, and his wife.  David, began to explain to me that he delivers food to poor people's homes and also, once a week, brings Holocaust survivors to doctor appointments and special meetings.  I almost fell out of my seat, that we had all this in common as we talked about our family history and what I'm doing in Israel.  The love between us as complete strangers was very tangible and we plan on continuing our new family relationship. The rest of The Faith Tour was filled with many wonderful meetings in Messianic congregations, churches, a conference, and radio interviews, as well as visiting my sick parents in Los Angeles.  Because of your prayers this trip was a success.  Praise The Lord! Long awaited answer to prayer: Abundant Bread of Salvation has a blessed and happy announcement!  The Lord has brought alongside ABOS, a wonderfully experienced worker and native Israeli from the ends of the earth - the tropical islands of Hawaii!  Praise Adonai!  She will help us with our existing Kingdom work soup kitchen and food bag distribution to our growing number of over 400 poor and needy, as well as Holocaust survivors.  Not only does she come with a big servant's heart, but also a wealth of professional cooking experience and the ability to teach Biblical Hebrew and the Jewish roots of our faith in the Jewish Messiah.  She also happens to be the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors!  We welcome her, bless her, and ask for your prayers for this new ABOS team member. As we finish this letter, all Jews worldwide are celebrating the Feast of Trumpets (The Jewish New Year), also called Rosh HaShanah.  We take this time to bless you all, Jew and Gentile in this new year of prayer, financial support, and volunteers carrying the load with us.  Halleluyah!

Newsletter July 2018

Visitors to Israel from the ends of the earth! NEW, Abundant Bread Video clip! We at Abundant Bread of Salvation, are hugely blessed to be able to receive groups of Believers, that simply want to practically bless our Jewish people, but make an eternal impact.  You will clearly see in this clip how both are done at the same time.  Praise Adonai! To view, click on link below. https://youtu.be/HjaEVlDttsM July 2018 Shalom Dear Servants of The Lord Most High, We are extremely excited to write this newsletter, not just because of the news that is contained within, but also because of the following scripture.  Colossians 3:23-24 says, "Whatever work you do, put yourself into it, as those who are serving not merely other people, but the Lord.  Remember that as your reward, you will receive the inheritance from the Lord."  My friends, if this doesn't excite you about serving Him, pause, splash some water on your face and read this again! Just close your eyes and imagine what that inheritance will be! Seeing is Believing - I once was blind, but now I see. Speaking of eyes and vision, this month, Abundant Bread of Salvation was able to supply the funds to send over a dozen Holocaust Survivors to a local Optical Netanya shop to have full eye tests and get fitted for their beautiful, new, high-quality glasses.  Some of these survivors have been asking us for this assistance for over six months.  With your help, we can do this for dozens more.  How many of you have two or three pairs of extra glasses sitting around?  This is such a practical way that literally helps them to see our love of God in action and draws them closer and closer to Him.  "The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the deaf hear and the good news is proclaimed to the poor."  Matthew 11:5 CLICK here now, to be able to support dozens more to receive their physical and spiritual site. Jewish Royalty Meal with an Ex-Muslim Recently, we had an out-of-the-ordinary Royalty Meal with a busload of Holocaust survivors in a beautiful Jerusalem hotel with an amazing, mixed group of believers in Yeshua (Jesus).   This event started with declarations made by members of the First Nations asking for forgiveness for past wrongs done in Yeshua's name to the Jewish people.  It then continued with believers from the USA presenting pure 14k gold rings to each of the survivors as a small, physical and prophetic sign, giving back to them all that was stripped by force from them during the Holocaust.  Not a dry eye in the crowd!  We were all blessed, but especially the Survivors, by the most amazing and extraordinary, personal testimony given by a dear friend of Abundant Bread of Salvation.  She is an ex-Muslim that fell in love with the Jewish Messiah, the Jewish people and the land of Israel.  The Holy Spirit could be felt in the most powerful way through this testimony and especially when she ended by physically giving a heart-shaped crystal stone to each survivor describing that they are all like sparkling diamonds in the eyes of the Lord.  Praise Yeshua, for this festive evening! Sometimes, I think, "Lord, okay.  I have reached a peak in ministry and not sure how You can show Yourself in any more powerful ways."  I am delighted to say, that I am totally wrong, as He speaks clearly saying this is only the beginning as we at ABOS continue to be faithful with little that He will continue to bless us with much. Halleluyah to Yeshua! Abundant Bread of Salvation Board Members are Never Bored! We just finished our annual board meeting this week and I was so blessed in the unity and encouragement from these godly, hand-picked members that stand with us in prayer and support over all these years.  They expressed how blessed they are to be a part of seeing the hand of God and His provision practically and spiritually, in all that we do.   Please pray for all of us! Brian Is Coming to America to speak and share vision. Maybe we can meet?  We need your help!  First of all, please pray for open doors and flood gates of His blessings to flow and work through me.  My dates are August 15th-September 6th starting in Michigan, then Ohio and ending in California.  If you happen to know people in these states that would invite me to speak, or you would like to set up a meeting, by all means please contact me as soon as you're able.  Thank you very much for your prayers and financial support for this urgent trip and my traveling safety.  Click HERE, to give your greatest gift.

Newsletter June 2018

June 2018 Greetings, Dear Follower of the Most High of Israel, I always love the words of Psalm 121:4, which says, "He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep!  Out of all the countries, nations and kingdoms of this world, tiny Israel is chosen to be the example of God's sleeping patterns.  I myself am a late night person and actually am writing this letter on Father's Day while the stars shine their glory.  A special blessing to all who have the awesome privilege of being a Father (Abba) on earth.  We ALL, have a good, good Father above! As a child, I loved playing the simple connect-the-dots game, which always created a special shape that I would typically color in. Similar is the Kingdom of God, in that He has perfect order and design connecting the spiritual dots in our personal lives. If you received last month's prayer letter, in the first paragraph I wrote, "I'm inspired by the Ruach Ha Kodesh (Holy Spirit) to make a declaration of the scripture, Ezekiel 37:3-5, which talks about prophesying over the dry bones that God will breathe new life into them." Well, friends, since making this declaration, we are happy to proclaim that four more of our Jewish people have prayed to receive this new breath of life, accepting their Jewish Messiah, Yeshua!  We also prayed over a woman of faith that had chronic pain in her back and arm and she was instantly healed rejoicing in her salvation!  Glory!  These are miracles happening before our eyes!  You can only imagine how ecstatic our team was as we work day and night to see the spiritual fruit of our physical help and your many prayers and essential financial support. Please click HERE to give your biggest Fathers Day Gift, because He, is a Good Good Father and we are bearing His fruit because of it!  Halleluyah! Memories of Poland trip and connecting the dots. One of the many prophetic words God spoke to me before going to Poland was that I was to shave my head while in Poland, which could only be accomplished on a Sabbath.  This was a personal act of obedience in standing with our Jewish people, who were forced to have their heads shaved, ripping their identity from them and then their hair was sold to German companies to make seat cushions and upholstery, among other cruel things. Above picture left: I am standing in humble reflection and prayer over one the most horrific sites were our Jewish children were massacred by the Nazis, in the middle of the forest  where know one could see.  We then went to the famous Oskar Schindler Factory where many Jews were saved from being sent to the death camps.  Abundant Bread of Salvation, wants to take this opportunity to thank all the Righteous Gentiles who stood up to protect and save our Jewish People.  We, are eternally thankful! Ironically, connecting the dots, the day I arrived back from Poland to Israel, I had a planned meeting doing a Royalty Meal with a member of the Schindler family and their tour group, with almost a dozen Holocaust survivors that I invited to a five star hotel in Netanya!  They shared their testimonies of survival as well as the member of the Schindler family sharing her heart and love for the living survivors who were saved from being part of the piles of ashes. Connecting more dots. The day after this meeting, I had a scheduled bus rented for 50 Holocaust survivors, taking them on a special two-hour journey south.  In the City of Arad, an artist believer made an amazing exhibit showcasing six (representing the six million Jews massacred), different emotionally-moving, Holocaust survivor, human-sized bronze statues.  Together with these statues on the backdrop wall are six different stages depicting the suffering of our Messiah Yeshua (Jesus).  The survivors were moved to tears, realizing Yeshua was with them even during the Holocaust!  By God's divine dots connecting again, it just so happened that the same Schindler group went before us at this same exhibit, so they were again blessed with a divine encounter meeting each other.  There is so much more I'll have to share in next month's prayer letters. One last very important news item that is no less important than anything above... Last month we shared about the dire financial need for our weekly food bag program that is impacting hundreds of lives eternally every month for the Kingdom.  We are still lacking over $40,000 US dollars that will help to cover this expense for the next six months that we currently do not have.  Please pray and see how Messiah Yeshua speaks to your heart to cover this need.  Every little bit of seed money counts! Over 2000 people are relying on you as financial donors to fill this much-needed physical food gap. Please, may I also ask you to share this with ten of your friends or family members that love Israel and the Messiah of Israel as well as the work of ABOS? Click HERE, to fulfill this dire request helping over 2000 people for the next six months.  We trust our Great God for this! In ALL your ways, acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. Brian and the Abundant Bread of Salvation Team May we see more of these dry bones live on forever eternally!  Amen! Brian Slater-CEO / Projects Manager Email Me at:  Brian@AbundantBread.com

Newsletter May 2018

Hitler said, "work will set you free, we say blessing, praying and supporting Israel and her Holocaust Survivors will set them free!" This is one of three concentration camps gates I walked through just weeks ago, in the memory and footsteps of millions  of our Jewish people who perished, just for being Jewish.

May 2018 Shalom from the beautiful land of Israel (Eretz Israel), We would like to start this month's letter with a couple of declarations. The first is scriptural: Ezekiel 37:3-5 CJB, "He asked me, 'Human being, can these bones live?'  I answered, 'Adonai Elohim!  Only you know that!'  Then he said to me, 'Prophesy over these bones!  Say to them, Dry bones hear what Adonai has to say!'  To these bones Adonai Elohim says,  'I will make breath enter you, and you will live.'" What good can come out of Poland? I have just returned from the most amazing, life changing, spiritually fulfilling journey and also discovered my Jewish roots and heritage in the midst of one of the most horrible and dark places on the planet earth.  I am speaking about the concentration camps of Poland with gas chambers, ovens and hundreds of horse stalls converted into human stalls for the simple reason that they were Jews during World War ll.  I know this is heavy so please hang in there with me as the story does get better.  Because of the lives of six million Jews being cut short, out of the ashes of the Holocaust a miracle was born, there was a great and mighty nation that was declared and birthed in one day called The State of Israel!  All Jewish people can come and live freely in this Jewish Nation, now 70 years young.    Sites I visited of the concentration camps, including the horrible gas chambers. My Polish Jewish Identity in Messiah, breath's life into these dry bones! While in Poland, because of my Jewish grandfather's documents in my hand, I found out that I am a Galician Jew.  I experienced many divine appointments and was with a group of secular Israelis, Christians and Orthodox Rabbis.  In this mixed group, I was able to shine His light in the most natural Jewish fashion, where only darkness and no hope prevailed.  Praise Adonai!  I will be processing this life-transforming trip for quite some time.  Thank you very much for all who prayed while I visited several concentration camps and even the famous Oskar Schindler's Factory. The Lord truly was with me as I proclaimed new life, literally sprinkling fresh living dirt (Ha Aretz), I brought with me from Israel at the entrances of these nightmare monument buildings. Sites I visited of the Krakow and Auschwitz concentration camps. I even brought with me fresh dirt from Israel and laid it at the corners of the doors proclaiming new life. I also got a hair cut in Poland to connect with our Jewish people having their heads shaved by force. The most amazing things happened while I was there, although I did shed many tears, a specific scripture verse was completely fulfilled from Psalms 23:4, which states: "though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." I will be sharing more about this monumental trip in the future.  Am Israel Chai-The People of Israel live! Dry Food Bag Distribution Center - URGENT REQUEST For at least the last six years we have distributed food bags with 25 products to over 400 poor and needy as well as Holocaust survivors costing over $10,000 U.S. worth of dry food products every month. Recently, we have had to substantially decrease this project because of lack of finances for the rest of this year. We come to you with this urgent request, which states, "we walk by faith and not by sight", so by faith, we want to proclaim the provision of an extra $60,000 for this month and next month, so we can continue the full distribution, throughout the rest of this year and even start next year with His abundance. We know the Lord will speak to many of you Chosen Ones that do have the ability to fulfill this dire request! Obey His voice, if He is leading you, as hundreds of hungry lives and Holocaust survivors are depending on you. Please do your part! We are on the front line, physically praying for people, while many are being healed and some coming to know their Messiah personally. YOU, are part of these earth shaking efforts in the natural and spiritual. PLEASE CLICK HERE: to be part of providing your financial help to over 400 poor and needy Jewish People and Holocaust Survivors for the rest of 2018. Speaking of earth shaking events, we rejoice over Jerusalem Day as well as the Official realization and dedication of the U.S. Embassy in Israel's Capitol City, Jerusalem. For such a time as this!  Esther 4:14.  All of this and much more happening during this prophetical season of Shavuot that includes the giving of the Torah, the harvest, giving of your first fruits, holding a sacred assembly and rejoicing in our liberation of the giving of the Ruach Ha Kodesh - the Holy Spirit. Thanking our Messiah Yeshua for you, your prayers and support.   Please pray what your largest first fruit's donation towards the work of Abundant Bread of Salvation should be?
